[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1412445, member: 131855"] You're welcome. Glad to help. If that's a search that you do often it's possible to save the search and re-open it as needed. Then the only thing that you would need to change is the name of the files that you are searching for. Basically you save the search as a Smart Folder and place the folder in the sidebar of a Finder window. The next time you need to change the filename for the search right click that folder and modify the search criteria.
