find /users/ -type f -name "*" -exec grep -ls sqlload {} ; It gives output like this: /users/hattb/shirley_test_file
The -type f switch tells it to only look in text files. If you want to redirect the output to a file: find /users/hattb -type f -name "*" -exec grep -ls sqlload {} ; >out.txt
Hope this helps, Shirley

find|xargs grep 'search text'
is easier to type :-)
xargs rocks.

For those of you with a really stripped down config with no xargs and a find that doesn't support -exec, the old fashioned way:
for i in `find <path>`; do grep <pattern> $i; done
