I have a situation where there are multiple text files but I only want to process the files that a have a certain line IN the file. Search and replace seemed like a possibility using the output files variable. However that seems to be all the files it processed. Is there a better way to accomplish this?

If these are relatively small files .. then, do a loop through your files, set the file contents to a variable "FileContents", then use the "Contains" function see if "FileContents" has the value you're looking for. Condition based on results...

Do you mean using a Read task to store it in a variable? If so, isn't that a row by row examination and not the whole text file?

Then use an IF task to decide what to do with it?

Set Variable Task ... not a Read Task.

Then use an if condition to see if the variable "contains" the value you are seeking.

Thanks! That works perfectly!
