Searching for text within files.

[KarveR]

Is there anything like the equivalent of grep in c# or will I need to build my own ?

I have a directory full of files and i'd like to find a text string within them, and return the filename.

Any clues hgints manual pages, or other resources greatly appreciated, thanks.

You may need to "open" each file and go line by line to search for the text. There is nothing native to .net that I know of like grep. If you find something, please let me know
