RE: Searching all IFS files for text string -- WDSCI-L

Yes, I think I must be doing a filesearch because I don't have the other.
When I'm in RSE and drill down to IFS folders and right click, I do not see
search, which would be great. I see only Find Files... I snipped a piece of
the screen and attached. No remote search for me? In fact, I get no hits in
the help when I look for remote search. Was I suppoed to do something to set
that up? I have the flashlight icon above and a Search menu which gets me to
the search I have. 

I am using WDSc Version: 5.1 Build id: 20030908_2154 - I believe there is
newer but we just got V5R3 CDs and I have not tried to load. Maybe the
remote search came after this version?

Are you using the "Remote Search" feature?  The behavior you're describing
sounds like File Search.

You can get to Remote Search by drilling down into the IFS through RSE. Find
the directory you want to search, right-click on it, and select "Search..."


HTH,

I found that the search works but only on files you have opened and saved
with WDSc. I created a file in an IFS folder with WordPad and it couldn't
find it. I opened/saved/closed the file with WDSc LPEX and then it found the
string inside it. Just to be sure, I created a copy of the file in same
directory, researched and no find. Open/saveclose the copy and then it finds
it. I have Workspace checked on the search option. Does that imply to only
search things that I have actually worked with all all things available
under my iSeries connection?

Is it possible to use WDSc to accomplish a search of all IFS files for a
particular string? Help says you can, but it seems oriented to the LIBL/FILE
system rather than to the IFS. I have been able to use search to get a list
of files with some name pattern or some extension but I haven't had any luck
searching inside the files in this list for a string occurance. 

If this something where you would have to created a user action?
