Acad\\201611\\C-BASE.dwg

The backslash is an escape character, so it needs to be doubled up (you're escaping the escape character :)) ]]> Searching for path and filename within set of text files https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/searching-for-path-and-filename-within-set-of-text-files/?ID=e569ec27-dc35-491a-922d-a48f087096a8 Thu, 17 Nov 2016 16:19:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/searching-for-path-and-filename-within-set-of-text-files/?ID=e569ec27-dc35-491a-922d-a48f087096a8 FileSeek I need to search for specific path and filename within a set of text files. Everything works fine if I search only for the filename, but I need to include at least a portion of the path - otherwise it gives too many results.
Example: Acad\201611\C-BASE.dwg
In the Query, if I put only c-base.dwg it brings up results for too many different directories - I want only results within the 201611 directory. I've experimented with quotation marks, RegEx, but I just can't get it to work. I had this working on a previous machine, but I just can't figure it out this time.
Thanks,
Ed ]]>
