Once again, we've run into one of the many problems as a result of using builder
as a front-end to our tools.

OK, here's the scenario:

Our tools use "Viewer 4.0" which has the find capability in its menu to
search on a string within a document. However, our users have requested
that they be able to search across several documents for a certain string.

Is there an API client or anything that could replace the Find item in the 
builder menu and search across a set of documents instead of in just one document.
If some great soul has already doen this, would you please be kind enough to
share this with us.

Thanks, 
Malur

FrameViewer Pro provides full text search across a set of files. Ran
into a few problems with it while trying to use it with Atlas, and
haven't had time to follow up with Frame yet. Give me a call if you
want to discuss.
