Finding the name of a folder without the GET_FILE_NAME dialog box

I want to find the name of the folder that contains a file such as ifrun60.exe. But this searching must be done internally, not by using the GET_FILE_NAME dialog box. What should I do?

I take it that you are on a Windows platform. If this is an Oracle Apps installation, then you also have the MKS Toolkit installed, which allows you to use Unix commands.

find . -name ifrun60.exe
This particular file should be in your 8.0.6 ORACLE_HOME/bin, in an Apps install.

I am not aware of a native Windows command line function that will traverse directories to search for a particular file.
