Only Search for Text Within XAML Files using Visual Studio 2010

Question

Many times I find that I want to search my entire Visual Studio project for a text string, but I only want to search the XAML files in the project and not the code-behind (.cs) files.

Does anyone know if there is a way to do this in Visual Studio or if there is an add-in I can download to accomplish this?

Thanks.

Have you tried using the Find In Files (Edit->Find and Replace->Find in Files (Ctrl+Shift+F)), and then specify a File Type in the Find options. Add *.xaml to do just XAML files.
