How do I search for files that contain multiple query strings? [message #1506437]

How can I search for files that contain two or more search terms? For example, how could I search for files that contain both the words "cat" and the word "dog", in any order and with any number of words and lines separating them? Thanks.

Steven,

Regular expressions can do such things, e.g, cat.*dog|dog.*cat
