FIND and REPLACE COMMAND

what do you find and replace? A mass replace or what?

use this one


!whichText = !!Alert.Input('What TEXT you want to find?','')
!replaceWith = !!Alert.Input('Replace with?','')
VAR !texp COLLECT ALL (TEXP GLAB) WITH (MATCHWILD(Btext,'*$!whichText*')) for CE
do !x from 1 to !texp.Size()
 !newBtext = !texp[!x].dbref().btext.Replace('$!whichText','$!replaceWith')
 $!texp[$!x]
 Btext |$!newBtext|
enddo



For Slabs Atext should be used

run it on view level

Hi Fellow PDMS User,
Is there anybody here knows the Find and Replace Command in Draft?
Thanks in advance folks.

Dear Ruav,
I just want to find the TEXP, SLAB, GLAB and replace that value by another text.
Hopefully you can help me on this.
Thanks.

collect all texp and glab to list with rule btext eq 'blaablaablaa'. Then modify list members with new btext. Slab has the same attribute as atext so you have to probably do them separately.

That's the easiest solution that comes to my mind..

That's great idea J. Wide but that is what i am doing.
But one solution came to my mind.

Better BDList the sheet and do the thing on notepad using find and replace. :single_eye::single_eye::single_eye:

Thanks Ruav and J.Wide.
For giving attention on my quries.

But if you can find better and easiest solution please don't forget o respond on this.

Thank you.

Well, I asume they want to direct U in right way. NOt to solve such easiest problem .

Hai.....

try this command edtext in list this will simplify your work......     for eg: if i want to change SDxx0147 in the list to SDyy0147, get the list and type the command like edt 0 'xx' 'yy' in action prompt and press action button . it will change the xx letter to yy.
