The file should be in "the defaultFolder"

put pi into URL "file:foo.txt"
put the defaultFolder
-> /Applications/Revolution 2.1

there is a file /Applications/Revolution 2.1/foo.txt with 3.14... in it.

I never search with Finder, so can't help you there. I text towards 
Unix stuff so I use locate, find and grep from the command line.
