Search contents of files
-
AppColl enables a user to search for files and folders by name. It would be great to also be able to search by file contents. For example, I'm trying to find an e-mail message that contains a particular phrase (competitor's name, inventor's name, prior art reference, application number, or foreign associate's reference number, but I don't know in which matter the message file is stored). I would settle for a simple search, but ideally I could specify in which sub-folders to search (for example, I could search all Email folders under a particular client).
Wildcards and truncation (? replaces exactly one character; * replaces zero or more characters) would be great.
Bonus points for connecting two search phrases with logical connectors, such as AND, OR, ANDNOT, WITHIN5, WITHIN10, SAMEPARAGRAPH, or INSUBJECT.
I suggest the following UI, but the developers or other users may be able to design a better one.
Thanks,
George
