Several Text issues

[Michael Parent]

Hello, I have been reading all the user list messages for awhile and
learning lots about Revolution, but I am still a newbie at it.
 
I am using Ken Ray's Directory Walking (thanks Ken) to put the path of
all files in a directory in a scroll text field: I have read the
documentation and searched the user list archives but still cannot find
how to do a couple of things.
 
1. I would like to format the text in the field for better reading, how
do I use the set htmltext property to format the text field, do I put
that in the text field script?
 
2. I want the user to enter a search string and be able to find that in
the text field, the string could be a file name or an extension type. Do
I use the find command? what is the format? I want to be able to find
anything that closeley matches the search as well as exact matches, and
have that open in a new stack. The documenation shows how to use Find
with a specific string but not how to do it with a variable.
 
3. I would like to be able to open to that file in an explorer window
(only needs to be windows, but a cross platform way would be great) by
clicking on the file name in the search result window.
 
Thanks for all your help
