Hi. When I'm troubleshooting a section of code, I often subset the experiment to only run the part of the code that I'm testing to save time. So for example, if my final experiment will look like this:
<expt ELSMC_Validation_ShortForm>
/ blocks = [ 1= block1; 2=block2; 3=block3; 4=block4;]
</expt>
When I'm developing block4, I might subset out the first 3 blocks with a comment to myself:
Jeff replace
/ blocks = [ 1= block1; 2=block2; 3=block3; 4=block4;]
<expt ELSMC_Validation_ShortForm>
/ blocks = [ 1=block4;]
</expt>
When I'm done, I search for "Jeff" and make the appropriate changes. Lately I've been running through lots and lots of scripts and I want to double-check to make sure I didn't miss any. Unfortunately, when I do a windows search for "name:.exp contents:Jeff", it doesn't work because you can't search the contents of .exp or .iqx files.
TL;DR: Is there a way in Windows to search the contents of Inquisit files for a certain keyword or phrase?

*.exp or *.iqx files are text files. You have to tell Windows' search indexer to treat them as such and index their contents.

After some searching, I also found that another great solution is to use the Search capabilities of Notepad++.
