Computer How to search files containing a specific word in the content

Hi all,

Lets say I have 3 files a.txt and b.txt and c.txt.

a.txt has the following text
====================
apple is good for health

b.txt has the following text
====================
apple is pomme in french

c.txt has the following text
====================
orange has citric acid


Now apple is a word common in both a.txt and b.txt... How do I find all the files which are containing the word apple, so that the output will be a.txt and b.txt.

Please help..

Smilie
