The dumbest of dumb Text Search questions

I've done some due diligence by searching the forum for an answer, but to no avail. Excuse this most elementary of questions.

Using grep I can search a file and derive the line number of the text I'm searching for. Now for the elementary part, how do I continue a search for a different search criteria from that line to the end of the file?

Thanks in advance.
