Is there a way to setup a filter containing source files from multiple libraries and search all files in that filter using an -or- condition?
ie: Search Filter = XXLIB/QRPGLESRC *ALL
YYLIB/QRPGLESRC *ALL
ZZLIB/QRPGLESRC *ALL

Search for ABC or QRS or DEF

I don't think so. It looks like the 'Find String...' option on a filter uses FNDSTRPDM in the background. As far as I know, there is no way to search using regular expressions in FNDSTRPDM.

Perhaps you could use the QShell command grep? I have no idea whether this works on source PF members, only that it would work well for stream files. Perhaps someone on the midrange list would be able to answer that if you want to try it.
