Looking for some guidance; I have several files within several folders (5 files per folder, and thousands of folders) that I need to search a text file within each folder for a word match (like three_little_pigs.txt, and I need to find "moe", if he's listed) and then when a match is found I need to move (not copy) that entire folder (and it's 3~5 files contained within) to another location... I'm thinking grep, but don't know the correct syntax to make all this happen. I can easily find all the folders (1949 of them) and the word match 3923 times within the text file(s)... Any ideas??? -- -Maurice Pelletier Child Development Services - Cumberland County 50 Depot Road Falmouth, ME 04105 207-781-8881 (voice) 207-781-8855 (fax) www.cds-cumberland.org "Linux -- it's not just for breakfast anymore..." -Moe
