search files which filename contains a speicific string

[Yves]

Hi

I'm lookng for a way to find all files in a directory which part of filename contains a specific string.

e.g.:

string = hello

files;

- 1hello2.txt

- 22he45.txt

- gehello42353.txt, ....

The result should be either an index or the complete filename that matches. In the example I'd found index 0 and 2, or 1hello2.txt and gehello42353.txt.

Actually I have the list of the files with the "recursive list.vi".

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks for your precious help

Yves

You can use List Folder - function with *hello* -pattern.

From there you get filenames, which include that specific pattern.

If you allready have list of files:

- use Scan string for tokens in a for loop and if token index != -1, then you can add that array index to the list.

I´m sure there are better ways to do this, but nothing I can come up with quickly.
