Finding files by their content, at ligthning speed, without prior indexing! The tool will crawl through your directories or drives with high speed. If you have 20 GB of data and look for any file created within the last month, containing a special combination of phrases, it will be found within less than a minute. If you are able to apply further astrictions (i.e: type of file) the scan may even be finished within seconds.

Lists of found files are presented as virtual folder, looking similar to the Windows Explorer. Found files may be copied, moved, run, viewed, zipped and handled any way you want to handle them. Lists of found files can be stored for further use. Queries can be stored and repeated any time you want. Lists of found files may be searched for other criteria, exported to html or plain text.... there is merely nothing you can't do.

The integrated viewer is showing the content of all files and highlights the words you were looking for. You may copy and paste citiations or even collect several citiations from different found files within a new document.
If desired, Find-it will run automatically in the background. The program can be remote controlled by other applications using a script language, predefined queries can be startet repeatedly (if desired: hidden) creating lists of found files or automatically copy or move them.

Find-it was first developed 1993 for Windows 3.0 and has ben developed further since then. It was initially programmed for use of a group of german TV journalists because there was no software available to do the job. Find-it is distributed as shareware in German language since 1994. In Germany and other German speaking countries the program has a huge number of users, including governmental institutions, big companies and universities (Look at: References on the left). Increasing numbers of inquiries from all over the world led to the translation in English language with release 4.5.
