Search Text File

Hi,

Is there a way in Access to retrieve data in a specific area of a text file?
The data ( a 6 character date in YYMMDD format ) always resides on the
second line in positions 11 to 16. Thank you in advance for you help.

A year or two back I needed a search script to scan thru HTML files on a client site. Usual sorta thing. A quick search turned up a neat script that provided great search results. It was fast, returned the hyperlinked page title, filename, and the body txt (30 preceding and following words) in context with the search word highlighted. Excellent.! See it working at: http://www.ipt.co.za Just search for "firearm"

Howdy! The search is a 1 GB+ file from a crash to be exact - had an e-mail correspondence (window) hopefully in it so I saved the file on reboot before windoze kicked in and want to open and search it for my e-mail, then delete the file... Anyone know of a program to do that which can find and then go up and down to extract or cut and paste my e-mail. It took a day to write that e-mail and I can't imagine trying

What is the *fastest* way in .NET to search large on-disk text files (100+ MB) for a given string. The files are unindexed and unsorted, and for the purposes of my immediate requirements, can't be indexed/sorted. I don't want to load the entire file into physical memory, memory-mapped files are ok (and preferred). Speed/performance is a requirement -- the target is to locate the string in 10 seconds or less for a 100 MB file. The...

Not sure where to post this... Found some interesting behavior in Windows Search (Start =Search =All files and folders =search for "A word or phrase in the file:"). This applies to XP and maybe other Windows flavors. Procedure: 1. Create a simple text file named test.txt. 2. Open the text file in a text editor and add a simple test word such as "blah" (not quotes).
