Searching inside .asp doc's

Hi,
I keep banging my head against the wall with this. XP file system search does not look inside .asp files. This is a pain if I need to make changes to a page and cant remember which page, it would be easier to use the file system search to look inside the .asp file for keywords.

My question is obvious, how can I search inside .asp files for keywords.

TIA.

with Windows? you can't. in this aspect, Windows is primitive.
you must use something else, i.e. code written by private people.
feel free to download and use my own Searcher:
http://www.amitbb.co.il/Downloads/temp/Searcher.zip
simple to use, search every file in the given location.
(double click search result in order to see the file)
good luck!
