Click&Search is a Windows productivity tool designed for Autodesk® AutoCAD® users who need to search text across large sets of DWG files.

The application uses AutoCAD Core Console (accoreconsole) to perform fast, read-only batch searches in the background, without opening additional AutoCAD graphical windows. You can continue working in AutoCAD while Click&Search processes your DWG files. Your drawings are never modified.

Click&Search supports searches in:

• Single-line text (TEXT)

• Multi-line text (MTEXT)

• Block attributes

Multiple search strings can be entered at once, with support for exact matching using quotes. Processing is parallelized to improve performance on large projects.

Search results are automatically exported to a structured Microsoft Excel report, including:

• Global statistics

• Results per DWG file

• Results grouped by search string

The application is designed for safe and controlled execution:

• Only processes launched by Click&Search are managed

• User cancellation stops all running processes cleanly

• Temporary files are removed automatically

• No network access is required

Click&Search is ideal for engineers, draftsmen, BIM coordinators, and technical offices working with large DWG repositories.
