Looking for text in a file

[keilamym 1]

Do anyone know the autoit command to look for text in a file. I'd like auto it look in an inventory.log file and let me know if "timed out' exist. i thought i saw this on the site a while back but cant seem to find it...

Any assistance is appreciated..

i use fileopen and fileread often.. i also use the while 1 command to send scripts into loops until the end of the file is reached.. but is there a way to have autoit actually look for "timed out" in the line? in the past, i has ping results read into an array and used the stdout, but the file is to for that. (atleast i think)

again.. any assistance is appreciated.
