search folder/directory for a phrase inside excel files
I need to search all the excel files in several directories for a specific
phrase. The phrase in question is contained in the source vba code associated with the excel files. Windows/XP search (explorer) does not find the phrase, not even in one of the files that I checked manually and verified the phrase is there. Is the vba source code stored in plain text and in the same location as the related excel file? Is there a tool that will do this kind of search? |
