"There was a request for a search utility for .ibs programs that would process all the include files when searching for a string - similar to SEEK in CED. Currently the only way to search .ibs files is either to use the QTILITY search or the UE Search->"Find in Files" however both of these methods search an entire folder rather than searching specifically the files involved in the .ibs."

maybe there's some way to use the native DOS function FINDSTR.

I've used FINDSTR extensively, generating a list of files to check by checking every file (*.IBS) for a list of things to find such as:

EXTRACTIMAGE
INQUIREIMAGE
INSERTIMAGE
READIMAGE
REWRITEIMAGE
UPDATEIMAGE
WRITEIMAGE

I used this to search all my .IBS files (where image.verb.txt is the file above):

FINDSTR /g:Image.verb.txt /n *.ibs > IMAGE.VERBS.FOUND.txt

just a thought!
