Also, if there's a directory "tree" within which you need to find such text:
/dira/january
/dira/february
/dira/march

Then cd to the top directory and use the -r switch:

QSH

cd /dira
grep -r 'find this' *

Guy:

Use: grep pattern filename

Example:
grep 'test' *
will search all files in the current directory for lines that
contain the pattern "test" ...

Do this from Qshell (STRQSH or QSH).

Then, change the current directory to the directory that contains the
files you want to search, e.g.:

cd /QIBM/UserData

Then issue the grep command, e.g.:

grep 'test' *

The output will show each file name that contains a match, and the data

found.

Hope that helps.
