Hi,

I am running Windows XP SP2 and am having some strange issues when I use
find...|xargs grep....  For example "find|xargs grep string" yields:

If I use "find -print0|xargs -0 grep string" I get nothing at all and "find
-print0|xargs -0 grep -v string" produces nothing as well.

Any ideas or help at all would be appreciated.
