How to grep for message and if found display filename?

Hi i'm new to the forum and was hoping someone could help me with the following query.

I do alot of testing and have hundreds of log files output. I have a script (someone else wrote) which finds all the passed and failed logs and puts a number in a column onto a webpage:

e.g:
Code:
		   Pass   Fail   Total
		   ----   ----   -----
Win32:
Vista:	  	      8      0       8 
XP:	              1      3       4

The code basically runs as a bash script on a linux box with apache and displays it on a browser.


for the failed files it displays the file info. Which basically greps the last 2 lines of the file and if it has failed it displays info from the line:
Code:
tail -n 2 *.log | grep -v FAILED | grep FAIL

above log file grep produces:
Code:
***-TESTv3.00g-XYZ-01-TEST_RESULT-1-FAIL 10/08/2010,00:24:43 (q:\runfiles\vlist.ini)

output on the browser is below:
Code:
Client	           INI File                             Time Failed At	    test Version
XYZ-01 q:\runfiles\myfiles\win32\vlist.ini 10/08/2010,00:24:43 TESTv3.00g

Now the problem i have is i haven't got enough info to find the log.

Is there a way i can get grep to also get the file name for the failed files.

so maybe a condition:
if the above tail command produced failed results then display the filename?

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
