Hi,
I'm using the command findstr but apparently the string I'm searching for is too long. Is there any alternative or any other way to bypass this problem?
Thanks
Yonit

yonitda,
Indeed
findstr shows a "FINDSTR: Search string too long." error when the search string is longer than 127 characters.
The
find command doesn't have this limitation.
DOS IT HELP?
If not let me know there are other options
