Windows has a built in 'find' function which you can access from the explorer window, or if you have a copy of MSVC, you can use the 'Find in Files' function which is infinitely more powerful. You'll find that in the Edit toplevel menu, and it's fairly straightforward to use. It will place all found instances into the output pane at the bottom of the screen, and simply double clicking on that line will bring up that file at that line and you're ready to go. If you're familiar with MS's brand of regular expressions, you can even pop one in there yourself. If you're using the cygwin tools, though, you're effectively using the unix version, so read on.
Also note that you can just use 'Find' - but all it does is search the currently open document.
Either way, find is incredibly easy to use, and I'm not going to waste our time on it any more.
