ACS - add LOCATE function to scan existing *.SQL files for text entry

Within ACS, you have Content Assist and Examples. Please consider adding a way to search your folder(s) of saved *.SQL files for a specific text value, such as MERGE, LIBRARYNAME, or FILENAME. This would enable developers to quickly open a saved script. Not sure WHERE to place this? On File->Open, or Edit, or Search menu, but a Locate script, Scan script function would be helpful to find previously entered information and then the ability to right click in the list of script names to open the desired file.

    Thank you for submitting your Idea to enhance IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS). At this time we do not plan on providing a text search option for sql files in a folder from within Run SQL Scripts.
