Move files with selective text

Does anyone know if there is a way to move a text file from one folder to another only if it has "ToReturnCode>31" in the text file?

Thank you,

Are you trying to move files in a complicated directory structure or just in one or two directories? In the latter case, you could just find the files using Find, Cut (Ctrl+X) them and Paste (Ctrl+V) them where you want.

That is really super. It worked really great. You just saved me hours of work.
I had no idea that could be done. What a great feature.

Thank you very much.

I often wondered how smart the find window was. I have wanted the capability many many times to select a file in the find window and have it take me to the Salamander double pane window. Is there a way to do that?

Just above the list of found files, is a button ... Focus.

Oh, & you may find some of the Shortcut Keys of interest too.
Like Alt+Insert & Shift+Insert ...

Thank you very much. I've been looking for Focus for years.

That's great.
