I am running Ubuntu 10.4

The code i executed is
Code:
find . -type f -name '*.txt' -exec ls -l {} \ ;

the code is running now but it's giving me all the .txt files in all subdirectories but i am interested in .txt file in DOC and DOCS subdirectories only

is there any why i can combine the following code to the previous one so i only get .txt files in DOC and DOCS directories:
Code:
find .  -name '*.txt' -exec ls -l {} \ ;


Regards
