Searching list of entries in file for actual files in dir
Hi all,
I have a file entries.txt that contains a number of entries all on seperate lines e.g. test1 test2 test3 test4 Then in a directory called /TestFiles I have a number of files that could contain the above text in the file name e.g. qwertytest1.csv qwertytest2.csv qwertytest3.csv How can I search the entries.txt to see if if the entries exist in the TestFiles directory? Thanks,

Code:

for f in /TestFiles/*$entry*; do
print "Found $f"
done
done < entries.txt
