Great, thanks, bvdet. I'll try to incorporate that.... -
It's not much different that is listed above:
[CODE=Python]

import re
dir_name = r'c:\Python25\b ooks\books\book s'
def FindWord(word, fileList):

for line in file(file_name) .readlines():
if word in line:
print line
def FindWords(wordL ist, fileList):

Thanks guys.
I got it where it is searching for all the words but I need to fine tune it some more.
First of all, when I put in a word like "eat", it is finding everything with those letters in it like "beat". Is there a way to make it only pull up the exact word?
Also it is bring up all of the lines that have one of the words in it. Is there a way to change it so that it only prints the lines that...Leave a comment:

Here is what I have now. It searchs on just fine but when I add a second word it gives me an error. I added a print statement to see if it was splitting the input and it is. I have listed the error I keep getting at the bottom. I can't figure out what is wrong.
Thanks for all your help.

Searching for more than one word in multiple files
I have successfully created a program that searches for a word in multiple files but now I need to be able to search by more than one word. I have add code from a previous discussion to my original program but I am unsure how they should fit together. Can someone clear this up for me?

dir_name= r'c:\Python25\b ooks\books\book s'

Sorry, I thought this line in the guidelines and thought I should use Texas22's rather than start an identical one.

I am not sure where to place that so I put it before the loop and got an error that file_name wasn't defined. I placed it inside the loop and it didn't make a difference....Leave a comment:

I change the second line below to read the lines but I am getting the error message below.

I have the following code. It prints out the list of files inside the folder but doesn't seem to be searching the files.
#!C:\PYTHON25\P YTHON.EXE
import os
dir_name= r'C:\python25\b ooks\books\book s'
entryList=os.li stdir(dir_name)
print entryList
searchWord= "Moses"
for file_name in entryList:
for line in file_name:
if searchWord in line:

I'm kind of in Texas22's stage here. You all know what you are talking about but it's all Greek to me. You assume we would know what a glob module is when I don't have the concept of what needs to happen. How can we try it? I don't mean to offend and I really appreciate your help but could you simplify your explanation for us python toddlers?...Leave a comment:
