Linux Lite 2.6 Suggestion Thread

Sorry  Jerry , does not the above procedure only find  files with the  file name including the word in question?  What I was trying to explain was, I am looking for a word or phrase that is in a document or pdf etc. that is filed in my system somewhere - where  it is I have forgotten or misfiled that document/pdf ; I am trying to find it.  When using windows I could search the whole of the "drive" for that word or phrase  and all relevant documents containing that word or phrase would appear, which I could then trawl through etc. to find the exact document I needed..

As I understand it, catfish  will only locate a filename containing a specific word in the filename??  Am I correct?  I understand that Terminal can be used to locate a specific word , but I was hoping for an "easier"  non terminal use route??
