Put the text that you want in the field into a variable, then set the
htmlText of the field to the variable. Assume that the list of files
you want to display is in a variable called tFilesToShow:
set the htmlText of field "File List" to tFilesToShow

Just put the variable into the search command. Assume the variable is
called tTextToFind:
find string tTextToFind in field "File List"
You may want to use some other form than "string"; the "find" docs are
pretty clear on these options.
