Not realy thecorrect list, you need a shell scripting list or newsgroup like
comp.unix.shell
however in bash something like 

-----------cut here--------------------------
#!/bin/bash

#enter date here (using your example)
DATE=20030117
#set number here
NUMBER=5100025

for file in PPD.$DATE.* 
	do
		echo $file
		grep -n $NUMBER $file
		echo "-----------------------"
	done
-----------------------cut here-------------
should do the job.

(i'm only a dabbler in shell scripting though so test throughly :)
