Somewhere in my scene I am using a jpg in a material. MAX is not finding it. How can I tell what material has this jpg?

Max Design 2012 SP2 / Win 7 Pro
NVidia Quadro FX 4800 x 2 (non sli)
HP Z800 - 2 Xeon X5680 @ 3.33 GHz; 36 GB ram

I don’t think there is a native max command to do that. But a script should exist somewhere.

Try this one on Scriptspot.com .. it could help you.

Max 2011, Win7-Pro 64.
NVidia GeForce GTX 460
Core i7 950 3.06Ghz, 24Gb Ram.

Hmmm...sounds like a Wishlist item to me.  I know I’ve had to do this before, and usually just went through the Material/Map browser and searched tediously through until I found the map & material I wanted.

In the Material Editor you can click “Get Material” and then “Scene” to view all the Materials and their Image Files which are used in your scene. The screenshot is from Autodesk 3D Studio Max 2011, I believe this screen is laid out differently in older versions.
