Is there a "search and place" function in InDesign?

Hi all.

I have a RTF-file with 100 pages of text. In this text there are alot of places where there are a "plain text string" - each string is the filename for an EPS file which is located outside of the RFT file.

I want to know if I can use InDesign to place the RTF file, and then start a "search and place" function, where it searches for the strings and at each place places the EPS file. Is this possible? It would be very nice because there are like a thousand EPS files to be placed!

Hope you can help!
