Q: I know the file I want has 'Read More' in it but when I search I find a hundred results - how do I know which is the one that I want?

A: I had a frustrating time this morning doing just this until I remembered that I had File Locator Pro installed. It's a good flexible file searcher - though I don't use it that often. But it not only finds the files, it shows you the line that the result is and the two lines before and after. This makes it really easy to see the result in context and know if it is the one that I want.

It took less than a minute to open up File Locator, do the search and identify the file. Not free but worth every penny of the price even if I only use it once every few months.
