Batch - search all files with %search% in name and list them

Question

I need to create a batch that list all files in folder and subfolders that contain the var %search% in the name and then list then with numbers per line so i can write the line number and it opens the specified file.

I have this but i cant change the output

dir *%search%*.* /s

Any thought are welcome thanks

`dir /s /b *test*|findstr /n "^"`. Answers your question, but I'm afraid, that won't help you. — Stephan, May 30 '17 at 16:25

It worked great, now to read the file, can i write the return to a txt? i could tell him to get the specific line and put it in a var and then just start var — razstec, May 30 '17 at 16:57
Got it :: dir -o test.txt /s /b **%search%*.**|findstr /n "^" :: now i just need to place a set where the user puts the number and a start from the line number of the txt that is generated, any ideas to get the line number from another txt as a variable? — razstec, May 30 '17 at 17:04
