Find String and extract in vba using fso - excel

Question

so my code currently goes through a folder and extracts Ranges of data from every file in the folder into a format set by me, it also extracts the filename.
Now i need to use fso to search for certain string inside the file not the filename, lets say "Smart", and in the file "Smart" appears quite a few times, but i only want to extract it once.
Thank you so much to anyone who is able to provide me the small part of the code or some advices to help me continue on!

This could help you, what it does is it search through the path's folders and each excel file that is inside it for the word that you are going to put in the input box.
Sub SearchFolders()
Dim fso As Object
Dim fld As Object
Dim strSearch As String
Dim strPath As String
Dim strFile As String
Dim wOut As Worksheet
Dim wbk As Workbook
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim lRow As Long
Dim rFound As Range
Dim strFirstAddress As String
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Change as desired
strPath = "c:\MyFolder"
'You can enter your smart word here
strSearch = inputbox("Please enter a word to be searched.","Search for a word")
Set wOut = Worksheets.Add
lRow = 1
With wOut
.Cells(lRow, 1) = "Workbook"
.Cells(lRow, 2) = "Worksheet"
.Cells(lRow, 3) = "Cell"
.Cells(lRow, 4) = "Text in Cell"
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fld = fso.GetFolder(strPath)
strFile = Dir(strPath & "\*.xls*")
Do While strFile <> ""
Set wbk = Workbooks.Open _
(Filename:=strPath & "\" & strFile, _
UpdateLinks:=0, _
ReadOnly:=True, _
AddToMRU:=False)
For Each wks In wbk.Worksheets
Set rFound = wks.UsedRange.Find(strSearch)
If Not rFound Is Nothing Then
strFirstAddress = rFound.Address
End If
Do
If rFound Is Nothing Then
Exit Do
Else
lRow = lRow + 1
.Cells(lRow, 1) = wbk.Name
.Cells(lRow, 2) = wks.Name
.Cells(lRow, 3) = rFound.Address
.Cells(lRow, 4) = rFound.Value
End If
Set rFound = wks.Cells.FindNext(After:=rFound)
Loop While strFirstAddress <> rFound.Address
Next
wbk.Close (False)
strFile = Dir
Loop
.Columns("A:D").EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
MsgBox "Done"
ExitHandler:
Set wOut = Nothing
Set wks = Nothing
Set wbk = Nothing
Set fld = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
