I need the help! Do to the nature of my job there's only information I can disclose. I do truly need the help! I just tried the find command that just worked from the command line and this is what I got.

Code:
D:/home/dv/daa/ae/pt(104) find . -name "*.xml" -exec -exec ls -al {} \; -exec grep -l "Status" {} \;
find: cannot execute "-exec": The system cannot find the file specified.
D:/home/dv/daa/ae/pt(105)

That's what I'm talking about....
