I'm sure this is a "Read the Full Manual" type of problem (I did search the help file and read the sections on marking before posting...), but I cannot get this function to work either in the dialog above or in the Mark_Matching a Rule (alt-G) dialog.
Baseline: XPLORER2 Pro 1.5.0.1 on Win XP Pro.
Essentially, I flatten a folder to a scrap pane, then from the Containing Text dialog, enter a string "7461000004-01" in the "Find What" field. Press SELECT responds immediately even though the pane contains several files of many megabytes, and I get no files marked.
Using the command ": 7461000004-01" in the address bar gets files marked that contains the text.
I'm experimenting with small groups of files to try this out first, as I really need to use the Mark_Matching a Rule feature on a LARGE number of files, but I want to get the function operating first.
TIA,
