I am sorry that I had not made me understood by you;

I describe it again in details.
I use the exgex expression "on|off|yes|no|..." (the sign "..." indicates that the alternative number may count up to 100) to call the function "FindInFiles", then when the search result displays, as you know the highlighted text may differ from each line, but how can I get the highlighted text in each line through macro.

please help me, thank you very much


I think the only way is to search for "on|off|yes|no|..." in the FindInFiles results.

First increase "Search Colors" in the Display tab of configuration Properties to 2, and change "Search String (2)" to a different color.
After you search for "on|off", in the search results, you will need to find "on" first, and then "off" next time.
