Ok, how you can specify filenames you are looking for and in which directories should be clear by now. Here is an example that might be ok for you:

Code:
$> find . -type f -exec grep -l OCT {} \; | while read LINE; do echo "Filename: $LINE"; cat $LINE; echo "----------> Trenner <----------"; done
Filename: ./yo
eins
zwei
OCT
drei
vier
----------> Trenner <----------
Filename: ./infile
