Are the reports in plain text format?
Are there specific key words to search for?
Are the reports in a certain order?
If so, this makes things easier.

Would grep work?
This can be called from the command line, or within R, or both.
Note that there are many grep-based functions within R.
(grep, grepl, agrep, agrepl, and many more...)

There is also a CRAN Task View, for this sort of thing:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/NaturalLanguageProcessing.html

However, 100 reports isn't that many.
It may take longer to find (or create) suitable tools than go through 100
reports manually.
