I need to find a list of files that contain 2 different words. For example, I need to search for a list of files from a folder that contain the word "Balloon" and then from the result, need to search for files that contain the word "burst".

Is it possible to do this using Textpad?

  • I basically need to search for files that has both the words, "balloon" and "burst". I need to do this with a single reg exp. Is it possible. – user1670593 Sep 14 '12 at 06:49

Edited answer because I see what you want is, in effect, to find any file with both balloon and burst in. You can simply use balloon.*burst (or balloon.+burst if you don't want to match balloonburst in the file):

TextPad Find with Regex

Don't forget to search In all documents - and my advice would be to hit Mark All to show the results. Bearing in mind you'd need to open these files in TextPad first.
