A workflow that searches finder based on entered text

[MarkM]

Hello Automator forumers!

I am looking to streamline our processes at my office and I was hoping Automator could help this along.

I would like to create a workflow that prompts the user to enter in a few text items and then searches particular network folders based on the entered text.

I would like one or two of the inputs to determine where the search takes place, and another input as the actual search terms.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
Mark

Hello and welcome.

A few members here have a little experience with Automator and AppleScript. However, it may be best to post this question at the following link, as they have a lot of folks with experience scripting on the Mac:
