The search can be started from any folder, with subfolders being optionally searched, or alternatively multiple drives can be searched either on the same machine or across networks. The files to be searched are selected using any combination of file specifications.

 

Logical expressions and GREP regular expressions can be used in the search.

The search results can be sorted based on a number of criteria such as number of matches in a file or the name of a file.

 

The search results can be saved to disk and retrieved at a later date. They can also be printed and can be displayed on the screen in a fully configurable manner.
