Hi Nick. Well, I guess that is not impossible but almost impossible. The way
to do it would be implementing a new application wrapper over the basis of
the File Access and extending it with the content checker. There is another
challenge regarding the file itself: What kind of file do you want to parse?
If the file is a text one, that would be easy, but if the file is a let´s
say pdf, you will need also to include the intelligence to open and read the
contents to search for the string.
Sorry for the bad news

Hi Raúl. Thanks for your response. If I have understood it correctly,
your answer allows file access to be blocked if a filename contains a
given string. However, I require the actual contents of the file to be
checked for the given string. Is this possible? Thanks.
