Hi all...

I am in a need to find a Dwg file from an archive of thousands of files... i have a input for searching the file and it is the text inside the title block of the drawing.. is it possible to search the drawing containing the text in the title block using Autocad??

Thanks in advance..

Sorry about necroposting.

You could use a program called Windows Grep that is freely available. File grepping searches for text string in many files without the need to open them.
