What desktop are yo using?  If MagiC/Ease you can do this from the
desktop by selecting the drive icons you want searched, go under the
File menu and select the 'Find' option, type in the file mask you want
and let it go to it!  You will be shown windows for all occurrences of
the mask.  

If OTOH you're using the standard old TOS desktop, get the shareware
file selector 'Selectric' and use its very nice FIND function to search
for the file mask you specify.
