Hi.

Would someone make me an application that loads list file "List.txt" and searches string "text". If there is that string it closes the application.

You didn't mention what program you're using, so I'm assuming that you're working in MMF2. Anyway, here's the file:

http://aggggge.funpic.org/stringsearch.mfa

As you may have noticed, the list object already has two built-in substring search functions. But the problem is, they only check if a line begins with a string (FindString) or if a whole line matches the specified string (FindStringExact). So it seems like you've got to do it manually, which is exactly what I've done in stringsearch.mfa.

Note: You can do this in only two lines of code, if you load the file with Binary Object or Edit object, and use String Parser 2 to do the string searching for you. Not that it matters anyway, heh.
