But with the use of Grep command i am not able to locate the keyword.
Please see the code i used according to your suggestion. Inside the directory i am searching i have files with txt,xml,edi,sgml extension files.

so please suggest something with the help of SED command if i can search for a keyword if it matches then proceed with conversion.
