Description

The File Search tool searches through text and data in files loaded in a file palette, When this tool is run it will produce a list of files that match the search criteria. The file search tool functions exactly like the search box in a file select pallet.

Examples:
The File Select pallet contains 5 xml files that all contain criteria for width.
Searching for "width > 50" will cause the pallet to list all the files that have a width value greater than 50.

Using the parse tool allows for more complex searches.
width = %1(+- 20%)
%1 could be the standard or nominal against which the measurements are judged.  This will display all the files whose width measurement is 20% higher or lower than the standard.
