Search within files in a directory (VB6)

HI. I have a directory of files that I would like to search through for a
specific line. I would then like to write that line and the filename to a
text file. I just don't know how to do this. I'm still learning how to use VB
6.0 and would appreciate any help that you could give.

Thanks.
