See, I have around 10 text files containing macros for my login ID and password for a specific application. I need to change that every month and it is a real pain to open the 10 text files and change the password manually. Your tip is exactly what I was looking for but alas...I don't have admin access to install anything on my PC :( Wish if we had a portable version of this... Nice tip, Aseem.

But let's not forget that one always has the "findstr" command with similar functionality available in Windows, without having to download or install anything. Nice tool, userfriendly, practical.

Great fan of your work!.. truly philanthropic! :) Your latest post, Search inside multiple text files at once <a href="http://(http://helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/search-inside-multiple-text-files-at-once/#more-4163)" rel="nofollow">(http://helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/search-inside-multiple-text-files-at-once/#more-4163)</a> is something I have been looking for for AGES! 1. Actually, I was under the impression that Google Desktop Search can also search the content of text files, but it doesn't show ALL the results. (Is it supposed to? Am I doing something wrong?) 2. I have always needed a way to search Multiple Word Documents for specific words, but, in ARABIC. Unfortunately the program Wndows Grep does not support ARABIC, is there any way you kind help me? If Google Desktop is the answer please let me know. Thanks a million. Mufaddal Hey Aseem!
