Answer Wiki:
Can you please give us some clarification. Do you need to scan the data in a PF Data file to find a character string? Or is it a PF-SRC file where you need to scan the source members to find something.. If that is the case then you can use WRKMBRPDM. Put '25' in the option field by the first member and then do F13 to repeat that option for all members. A screen will appear where you can enter the string value you are looking to find. * Are you looking to find a string either in a file name or the text description of a file or member. If so, you can also use PDM for that by using F15 to get a subset list.

This IBM command may do what you want. Just run it over all the source files you need to check. There are lots of choices for the OPTION parm. I just used *PRT as an illustration.

FNDSTRPDM STRING(FILENAME)
FILE(QRPGLESRC)
MBR(*ALL)
OPTION(*PRT)

Here is some code for my FNDSRC command.
It searches all Q* files on the system for a member and then uses WRKMBRPDM to display all of them. You can easily modify this to get what you need.

CMD        PROMPT('FIND A SOURCE FILE MEMBER')           
                                                         
PARM       KWD(MBR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) PROMPT('Source + 
             Member')

You should post you work here or what you have tried to do. This sounds like a homework question. I’m only saying this because you don’t say what you tried to do before asking us for help.
