Body
I'm tasked with implementing a search function that will search through several large (couple MB) log files and return the lines that contain the keywords. Log files are constantly being added to the pool so the search has to be dynamic every time. Would it make sense to create a <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd997372.aspx" rel="nofollow">MemoryMappedFile</a> for each file and then iterate through each line, matching the keywords? If not, what would be a better way to go about it? Any links to example code would be much appreciated.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
