Hi Brad,

BIAB has a "Find" function called "Song Finder" if you click on the lower half of Song Picker. I've never used this function before now. One of its options is to find text in song files but I cannot get it working tonight. Because I'm unfamiliar with this function, I've referred it to the development team to see if it needs fixing.

In the meantime...

I successfully used an unregistered version of "Sublime Text" to find a specific word in a BIAB file. This word is one that is found in BIAB's saved "Memo" information. So if "harmonica" is saved in the memo of an old song, you should be able to find it.

https://www.sublimetext.com/

If you download Sublime Text, follow the numbers on the image below to find the word you want.

Also... if you are curious about how to see the memo contents of a SGU or MGU file... when I opened the file in LibreOffice's Calc (which is equivalent to Excel), and selected a UTF-8 character set, the memo text was visible.

All the best,
Noel
