Re: grep -i -R path32 * vs grep -i -R path32 *.vb*


Sheryl,

Hi Igor,

I too am an avocate for find. However, I can't seem to
master it's usage in XP's shell.

For instance, the find command you suggested

"find . -name *.vb* -exec grep -ni path32 {} \;
-print"

returns the error
find: missing argument to `-exec'

in the XP shell.  The command works fine in the bash
shell.

More on the XP shell...
