if you're looking to flip through a whole directory of files.
Macro
str strNum strAllNums strAllFiles
Dir d
ARRAY(str) aResult
foreach(d "c:\temp\*.txt" FE_Dir)
,str sPath=d.FileName(1)
,_s.getfile(sPath)
,strAllFiles.from(strAllFiles "[]" _s)
findrx(strAllFiles "[0-9]{23}" 0 4 aResult);;Note: This is Unicode safe. There are more than 10 numbers in Unicode.
for(_i 0 aResult.len)
,out "%s" aResult[0 _i]

what's happening in my code is pulling all the files into a varible and then it's searching that big variable and putting all the results into an array and then outputting that array into the output window. if you want to put it into another variable and then dump to a file, you can do that in the "out" portion of the array loop.
