Performing a search within multiple .as files

In Flash CS4 is it possible to perform a search within
multiple .as files, or an entire project?
thanks!

I'm don't know if that's possible on CS4, but you can search
using the OS searching tools:
I'm not sure about Mac OS, but on Windows, you can click on
Start, Search, and under the Containing Text field, you can type in
'trace' (without quotes). Then click on the drop-down box under
'Look In:' and select Browse...
Browse to the location of your project and select it, then
click the Search Now button to begin searching through the files
there.
It will at least tell you which file(s) have trace in them.
Once you know that, then you can search through the file using CS4
to find the actual command. It would be much more convenient to
have that as a feature in CS4, but I don't know if it is.

  • Searching through multiple InDesign files

    I use InDesign via Windows.  In Windows I can search for key words through documents and folders via My Documents/Explorer.  Is there a way to search through multiple InDesign files the same way? 

    I don't think there is.
    If you use this indesign batch convert
    And convert your InDesign files to RTF - they should be searchable when using the search function in windows.
    Does that help?

  • Fastest method for searching within a PDF file?

    I have created a PDF document that holds all document reports for the last 10 years. It is currently 30,000 pages. As time goes on, incoming reports append to this PDF. This has proven to be an excellent way of holding and retrieving information, allowing me to pull up reports using specific search criteria.
    The question I pose is this. Is there any faster way to search this mammoth document than the adobe search feature? The adobe search feature has great functionality, without a doubt. And even with 30,000 pages I can search the entire document in about 5 minutes or so, however in this day and age, 5 minutes can be a lifetime, especially to a client, lawyer, doctor, etc...
    Does anyone know of a way of improving Adobe's search function to expedite it, or know of any existing third party programs that are able to do this (free or for cost)?
    I appreciate your time, love the community, and await your response.
    Have a great day.

    Hi,
    You can try going to finder, hitting CMD + F and below search this mac, you should see kind. You can try switching that contents and the second option to documents.
    Hope this helps,

  • Searching for links across multiple pdf files

    We have thousands of pdf files that are being moved to a new website. Some of these pdf files have links within them (either as text or as a hyperlink). This number is unknown.
    The issue is how to programmatically search across multiple pdf files (numbering in the thousands) looking for links using a regular expression or part of a path. This will have to be able to search behind the text and search for the link url.
    We first need to identify the number of files with links and create a list of the files with links that need modifying. If the number is too great to modify manually, then we would need the ability to programmatically edit these links.
    The pdf files are stored in a database. Also, the pdf files are different versions and some are password protected.
    Is there an Adobe product that will perform this? If not, are there any 3rd party vendor products that will accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I have no solution, but a thought: the database factor may seem to be
    a killer. But you could look for a solution designed to read PDF files
    from a web site (by spidering or from a list), which would presumably
    load them.
    Or could do a one off extraction of the files from the database into a
    directory and use that for your process. Probably a very good idea,
    since extracting all files from the database is likely to be costly
    and hammer the server (but can be scheduled at a sensible pace), while
    the search process will (if it is possible at all) doubtless need to
    be run countless times.

  • How do I search within a smart folder?

    In OSX Snow Leopard, I was able to perform a search within a Smart Folder. Now when I try to do the same in OSX Lion, I get strange results that aren't accurate at all. I'm seeing files in the search results that aren't even part of the Smart Folder. It doesn't seem to be working. Is this another known bug in Lion?

    Let me walk you through the problem. If I navigate to a particular folder nd click in search it does not show the folder name:
    However if I start typing I get the option to search said folder. Than I just blank out what I typed so I can get everything in the folder and all of it's subfolders. Strangely, "Kind: Any" does not work. I had to set it to documents.

  • Accessing raw text of TextFlow and performing a search

    I am trying to figure out the best way to perform a search
    within a TextFlow to locate a specific piece of text (either a word
    or set of words).
    I have had a hard time figuring out how to actually gain
    access to the raw text of the TextFlow that is loaded. Once that is
    loaded, I need to be able to search through that text, find the
    location of the text, and show that container.
    Essentially add search capability to the Pagination example.
    The only thing I can think of that seems like it may work
    would be to export the TextFlow into an XML file, then perform the
    search on the XML file. Once that is done, I would have to figure
    out which position in the xml file the text was located, and load
    the container with that position....
    Surely there is a better way?
    Thanks, Tim

    I think so - here's how I'd reccomend approaching the
    problem.
    Given a TextFlow I'd do a getFirstLeaf. That returns a
    FlowLeafElement. I'd then look at the FlowLeafElement.text property
    to access the text for matching. To advance to the next leaf
    element use FlowLeafElement.getNextLeaf.
    You'll have to do some book keeping when you find a match to
    figure out the absolute position of the beginning of the match.
    Next step would be to use
    textFlow.flowComposer.findControllerIndexAtPosition to figure out
    which container has the matched text.
    Adding niceties you could search a paragraph at a time by
    taking advantage of the limitElement parameter to getNextLeaf.
    After calling getFirstLeaf call getParagraph to find the paragrah
    and use that as the limit element. To advance to the next paragraph
    use null as the limit element and call getParagraph again for the
    new limit element.
    Hope that helps.

  • How to rearrange the contents of multiple PST files

    Hi,
    I have been trying to find a way of moving items within multiple PST files based specific criteria, but as of yet I haven't and was hoping that someone might be able to suggest whether or not it was possible using Powershell, or a third party tool.
    The scenario I have is that I've exported numerous user archives to PST file based purely on items that have attachments, unfortunately there are a large number of items that consider the email signatures to be attachments and I need to find a way of moving
    these items into a new folder within the PSTs.
    I know it's possible to do it individually via Outlook but that isn't practical in this situation. Please can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks

  • App with multiple WAR files

    We have a customer self-service web site, freshly re-implemented using facelets in a WAR file. It works fine. We are just now starting to re-implement a second significant component from the previous generation. This component is pretty complicated, so we would like to maintain and deploy it individually in its own WAR. However, we would like this component to blend smoothly in the primary application. Ideally, the main app would create a borderless window in which this component would live, but everything inside that window would be controlled by the second WAR file. Both WAR files run on the same web server, and if it helps, can run in the same session.
    In previous times, we might have done this with an iframe to contain the second application. But I'm well aware of the downsides of iframes and that they are strongly discouraged in new apps, What is the current recommended approach for blending multiple WAR files into what appears to be a single application to the end user? Portlets? Can I easily make a simple facelets application (our primary app) into a portlet container without making it into a full scale portal? All the portlet examples I find show the portlet in a window that the user can minimize or maximize. Can our primary app hide those window controls so that the contents of the second WAR appear to be part of the primary application?
    Thanks for any and all suggestions. I've spent a couple hours searching for "multiple war files" and "external war" and didn't find any useful leads.

    But I'm well aware of the downsides of iframes and that they are strongly discouraged in new apps,If it solves your problem, what would be bad about it? I wouldn't use iframes to merge applications from different hosts, but when the sub-applications are part of one larger application that you have under your own control, then why not?
    It is fine to follow current trends, but only if it is intelligent to do so.

  • How to search within excel file?

    Hi
    I have following requirement:
    A document library will have an excel file with around 10,000 rows. It will have one column as a primary key column. Column name is: Request ID
    A SharePoint site will have a page with text box and button. Users will enter Request ID in text box and click on button. Page division will display all the data from excel file associated with that Request ID
    I have tried using Infopath for this but Infopath fails running when item count increases. Here it is not possible. Uploading the data to SP list is also not possible because of many reasons like list item threshold or reporting methods(excel file will be
    uploaded on daily basis by some different team).
    How can I perform this search task in SharePoint? Is there a way by which we can search within excel file. May be something like - using excel services in CEWP or using filter web part and excel web access web part together on one page.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Regards
    Pratima

    I got solution for this.
    Create an excel file with as much as vlookup values. In excel it is possible to refer any file in vlookup. Lookup with Request ID and retrieve all the required values. Let the name of this file be: SearchBook.xlsx. Upload it to SP site.
    Create an InfoPath form to have a front end. Connect this form to excel file SearchBook.xlsx using SOAP web service.
    Create two more data connections to set cell value and read cell value. Using these data connection set value of cell with the entered Request ID and read corresponding lookup values. Display it to the Infopath form.
    This solution perfectly works. And it is very very very less time consuming. For me it returns the result in 1-2 seconds for around 5k records in excel file.

  • How do you add a water mark to multiple images within multiple files?

    I am having real trouble in trying to add a water mark to multiple images (mixture of jpegs and tiffs) within multiple file.
    I have used the Batch processing tool, but this hasn't worked or has been inconvenient, asking me to resave each individual file.
    If anyone can help or suggest another way of doing this, that would be great!
    Thanks
    Becca

    Are you using Russell Brown's script for placing watermarks?  Also you mentioned, "Within multiple file."  Did you mean multiple folders?  The batch processor has a check box for applying process to multiple folders.  What itsn't working - exactly?

  • I perform a search, get results, find the message I was after. How do I locate this message within my (relatively) complex folder and subfolder structure?

    Hi,
    I use structured subfolder system to keep my emails organized (hundreds and hundreds of folders).
    When I perform a search, get a list of results and within this list I find the email I was after, HOW do I locate the message? In other words, how can I open the folder which contains that particular email?
    Thank you in advance for your time and effort.

    Not a perfect solution but maybe a workaround.

  • How can i search for multiple file names (images) in bridge?

    Hello everyone!
    Does anyone know how to search for multiple file names in bridge?
    That is to copy & paste something like this: _MG_2152, _MG_2177, _MG_2194, _MG_2195, _MG_2202, _MG_2212, _MG_2219, _MG_2261, _MG_2362, _MG_2401
    Not using several criterias in the search box that is. That takes too long.

  • Efficient way of searching multiple xml files for multiple entries

    As I�m quite new to using xml in java I can't figure out how to solve my problem.
    I've got about 20 xml files, each about 500-1000kB big. each files contains about 500 questions, each with a unique ID.
    A user had to be capable of entering any number of ',' separated id's, and the program needs to show the user the questions.
    Using a SQL server this would be easy, but in this situation I can't. As this had to be a small program I can't add a 10MB jar file either, nor can I ask the users to install an additional program.
    Creating a brute search will be easy, but searching 20MB of xml files multiple times will be hard even for a modern PC.
    So my question is: What will be the most efficient way of searching these files?
    Hope that someone will be kind enough to respond :)
    Rick

    I'd still go with a database. There are databases that are significantly more light-weight than MS SQL Server.
    More concretely there are databases that run completely in memory. HSQLDB is one, Java DB (formerly Derby) is another one.
    I'd parse the XML files once, add them to the database and query from there later on.
    If even that is to complicated for you, then you could simply parse the XML files once and put the Questions into a HashMap with the ID as the key.

  • Selecting files within multiple folders

    This may seem like a dumb question. But I'm an automator newbie. I have about 50 folders containing a total of about 5000 files (100 files/folder). How do I get automator to search within all 50 folders at once, to search for specific files whose names I want to change.
    I know how to do this one folder at a time, i.e. 'get specified finder items' - and i go within the one folder, chose the 100 files, and apply the 'rename finder item' as my second action in my workflow. But I don't want to do this 50 times.
    Can anybody help me?

  • Using applescript/automator to import and categorise multiple .txt files

    Hello all,
    I wonder is anyone can offer me some advice on the best approach to importing multiple text files into excel. I've searched excel specific forums, but it seems that the macro's that work on windows wont work on my mac.
    Basically, I am trying to find a way of importing multiple comma delimanted text files into an excel workbook. If it is possible, it would also be great to automatically compute the data into summarised variables (e.g., the data is multiple reaction time trials [220 to be precise] and I would like to create cells within excel with the mean scores from groups of the trials [A1 to A20, A21 to A40, A41 to A80 etc.]) within a seperate sheet (at present I am importing the text files one by one, performing the calculations, before copying and paste special into a summary sheet).
    I have put an example of the file in dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/s/9y6valpkzsq8kgz/Example%20workbook.xlsx) to give anyone who is willing to help a better idea of what I mean.
    Thanks in advance.

    Danitaz,
    Did you ever figure out the problem with your mail that was going out from the wrong server (2 yrs. ago)?  I have the same problem from my MacBook Pro, using Mac Mail.  I try to send email from my work account and then find to my surprise and dismay that I get an autoreply in my personal gmail account from the person I wrote to.  I look in the Sent mail for my work account and it looks like the message went from there but I can see in the reply that it instead went from my gmail account!  I tried checking the box in my work account that says "send only from this SMTP server" but that didn't fix the problem.  The only way seems to be turning off the gmail in order to send with certainty from my work account.  If you have any suggestions I would love to try them.  Thanks!
    PS Sorry to write off topic here.  I wanted to reply to the original posting but I guess since it is so old I couldn't do so.
