Viewing Search File results

[brucec]

When searching for the word 'help' in doc files another search program allows similar search parameters of x2's Find Files, but in one window gives the file names where the word appears, and in the other window, the actually time(s) the word 'help' is found in the document, along with the sentence(s) it is found in. Can x2 be set up to do the same, as it also has two windows?

x2 shows some preview of text found in files, if you have the quickviewer on

but keep in mind that x2 doesn't do an exausting search for text
if you search for "help" and this word is found in the first sentence of the file, it will mark it as a hit and go to the next file

Thanks for this Nikos. I'll still ask if this is a consideration for later on releases or not. If not, I'll continue to use the 'other' program to get this specific response. At times, I really need a complete list of all the times it appears in a file. X2 still remains my favourite program. Because it is, at times you want it to be the swiss knife that does everything, which I know is not possible.
