Is It Possible To Search For A Word In A Text File Using CFFile Tag?

With regards. <CFBikzit Text=&quot;Hi There&quot;>

Just read your text file into a variable with <cffile>, then use the find() or findNoCase() functions to find the text your searching on. The <cffile> tag won't do the search by itself though.

Hope this helps,

Use the combination of tag <cffile>
and function <Find, FindNoCase, or FindOneOf>.


<CFFILE ACTION=&quot;Read&quot;
FILE=&quot;c:\web\message.txt&quot;
VARIABLE=&quot;Message&quot;>

<CFSET FoundIt = Find(&quot;Hello&quot;, Message, 1)>
or
<CFSET FoundIt = FindNoCase(&quot;Hello&quot;, Message, 1)>
or
<CFSET FoundIt = FindOneOf(&quot;Hello&quot;, Message, 1)>

<cfif Foundit GT &quot;0&quot;>
Hello was found.
<cfelse>
Hello was not found
</cfif>
