In Edge Code can i do a find and replace?

In Edge Code can i do a find and replace on multiple lines of code or just a single line?

You can't do it on just one type of file. However, you can do find and replace in selected files. Ctrl-click to select the targeted files in the Files panel, and then choose Selected Files in Site from the Find In drop-down.

How can I perform a find and replace against all embedded links?

Hi -
We have a project which links to another project. The URL for the linked to project has changed, and now all hyperlinks fail when clicked.
Yes - I can edit each and every link, but the person who set this up has literally hundreds of links in this project which now need to be changed. Please save my sanity and tell me there is a way to update all links programatically (replace infomoto.mot.com/robo/projects/iccs-bcs with infomoto.mot.com/iccs) in all places it is referenced.
Thanks much,
Anahid

In theory you can use the built in Multi File Find and Replace as the string should be on one line. Personally I would use FAR from http://www.helpware.net/FAR and search using Start With / End With and Must Contain to ensure the string will be found even if it is split over two lines. You could also use BKReplaceEm which is free.
Backup up your project before you start. Tools like this can fix issues in seconds, they can also wreck your project in seconds.

Can I do a find and replace on .cfm files only and not search .html or .txt?

Hi. I'm using Dreamweaver CS4. I would like to do a find and replace through my site with Dreamweaver but I only want it to search through .cfm files. Currently it is searching through .html and .txt files along with .cfm. Is there a way to do a find and replace on just .cfm files?

Where is Find and Replace?!?

I have been using DW 8 on my computer (Apple OS 10.4.11)
successfully for about a year. Just this week the Find and Replace
function stopped working. I can press Apple + F and I get nothing,
no popup windows or anything. I can go to Edit>Find and Replace
and I get nothing. If I go to Edit> Find Selection I get the
popup window, but it doesn't have anything in it and I don't see a
way to get the Find and Replace screen to popup from there. I have
restarted my computer and DW several times. Anyone know how to fix
this?

Try this:
1. in SiteManager, EXPORT the current site's definition.
2. REMOVE the site.
3. IMPORT the definition you just exported.
Better now?

Find and replace help needed, multiple variables

Hi everyone,
Im trying to find all urls in my code that start in a particular way but have a number variable at the end, see examples below
<a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=123">
<a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=485">
<a href="/example/examplefolder/enquiry.asp?pid=284">
and replace them with one url, see example below
<a href="/example/examplefolder/default.asp">
How can I use Dreamweaver find and replace to achieve this across my whole website?
So far I only know how to find one thing and replace with another, rather than finding variables and replacing them with one thing.
Thanks for your help with this!

In the Find field of the Find and Replace dialog box, enter this:
(href\s*=\s*\"\/example\/examplefolder\/enquiry\.asp)\?pid=\d+(\")
In the Replace field, enter this:
$1$2
Select the "Use regular expression" checkbox.
Explanation:
The two sets of parentheses are capturing groups, which capture the actual values as $1 and $2.
The \s* matches zero or more spaces.
\" matches a double quote.
\/ matches a forward slash.
\? matches a question mark
\d+ matches one or more numbers.
I have written a two-part tutorial on using regular expressions, which can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/regular_expressions_pt1.html.

Is there is a way to change the "Find and Replace" feature in Numbers 3.2 back to the way it used to be on Numbers '09 version 2.3?

In order to view my documents on my newly purchased Macbook Air I recently had to upgrade my 27" iMac to Numbers 3.2. The new version does fine for what I use it for except the new "find and replace" feature...It is TERRIBLE! It is so much slower than the older version. Plus I loved how the older version showed a table of all the matching word or items you're searching for and you could easily scroll through them to find the one that you were searching for.
My question is: Can you change the Find and Replace feature back to the way it used to be in version 2.3 or Number '09? If so, please show me how. I would really appreciate it.
The image below shows the new version on the left and the old version on the right just in case you don't know what I'm talking about...
Thank you.

Hi The.Gav,
Sad to say, but that feature has gone in Numbers 3.2

How to use Find and Replace for CR or TAB

How can I use PAGES 'Find and Replace' function to eliminate unwanted carriage returns or Tabs?
I tried to copy the backwards P and paste into Pages find window, but that doesn't work.
eMac Mac OS X (10.4.4) 1 G RAM

Copying & pasting should work, but it isn't necessary. In the Find & Replace fields hold down the Option key & hit the return or tab key.

My external hard drive is 'seen' by my iMac and I can go into the Finder and open files and folders. I am using the hard drive for Time Machine back up. However Time Machine says it can't find the drive. Same thing has happened with Final Cut Express.

My new LaCie external hard drive is 'seen' by my iMac and I can go into the Finder and open files and folders. I am using the hard drive for Time Machine back up. However Time Machine says it can't find the drive.
The same thing happened recently between Final Cut Express and my other LaCie external hard drive used as the Scratch disk. It fixed itself.
I've run out of ideas. Help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

have you done some searches on FCPx and time machine? Is there a known issue with using a TM drive with FCPx? dunno but ...wait...I'll take 60 sec for you cause I'm just that kind of guy.... google...." fcpx time machine problem" Frist page link

How can i find and replace xml tags?

Hi, i am using xml in my workflow and want to be able to remove certain tags if they contain particular text.
here is an example of my xml structure…
<entry>
    <name>DEFAULT</name>
    <tel>DEFAULT</tel>
    <address>DEFAULT</address>
</entry>
I am using this initial structure to set the paragraph styles to be followed when the xml data is imported.
This leaves DEFAULT in place wherever an entry doesn't have any content for that field.
I want to be able to import my XML then run a script that removes any tags that include DEFAULT, - I need the entire xml tag to be removed not just the text, if i do a normal find and replace it will only remove the text not the tags which is causing problems with styling. I also want to remove the end of para/return (^p) that i've placed at the end of the line. So it would be the same as opening up story editor and removing the content + tags + hard return in there, but i want to automate the process…
So i think this is what i need to search for in each case
"<name>DEFAULT</name>^p"
and i want to replace it with nothing ""
Can this be done through scripting (ideally javascript)?
I have a little knowledge of javascript but am not sure how to search and target that kind of string in indesign...
using indesign cs5
many thanks

Hi,
Script should do it in two steps:
1. find all occurences of i.e. ">DEFAULT<"
2. remove whole paragraph which is a found_text's container.
For example this way -JS - (a textFrame filled with your text should be selected) :
var mStory = app.selection[0].parentStory;
app.findTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = ">DEFAULT<";
var myF = mStory.findText();
var count = myF.length;
while (count--)
     myF[count].paragraphs[0].remove();

How can I find and replace multiple words at once?

I need to be able to find and replace words into queens English. For example, I need to replace all instances of "color" with "colour," "tire" with "tyre" etc.
I'm new to scripting, so simple answers would be appreciated :)

Hi hobs707,
Please use the below code for your required output:
Replace ("color", "colour")
Replace("tire", "tyre")
//Replace("hobs707", "hobs007") just copy and paste and edit the contents as your wish
function Replace(input, output)
app.findTextPreferences = app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = input;
app.changeTextPreferences.changeTo = output;
app.activeDocument.changeText();
If the above answer is correct please provide Correct Answers for me.

How can I multi-find and replace relative paths to external topics?

I am using RH7 and publishing to a company server share. External topics are saved on the same server share and linked on my local drive to create a relative link. How can I do a multi-find and replace on the relative links to change the path to the external docs? The paths do not show up in the Topics List because they are relative, not absolute. Although changing all of the many paths manually would be job security, I would like an easier fix. Thanks for any help.

Hello again
Likely your best bet at this point is to use a good Multi-File Find and Replace utility.
While RoboHelp has one included, it often fails. So we typically recommend something like FAR (Find And Replace) or BKReplace.
Click here to visit the FAR site
Click here to visit the page for BKReplace

Can't find and replace on one column only

in Excel I could find and replace something that where on one column.
In Numbers I can find and replace on all the document, active sheet or formula, but not on the selected column i.e.
Does anyone know any trick for that?
Cheers
Olivke

Hi Olivke,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers '09 forum.
Of the three choices, the one that seems most immediately useful in "on the active sheet."
To use that, you'll have to isolate the column (or it's contents) on a separate sheet, and make that the 'active sheet.'
I would recommend making duplicates of your file to use when trying each of these methods.
Start by inserting a new sheet. Then go back to the 'current sheet', select the column, and Copy.
Click on the new sheet to bring it to the front, click on the top body cell (B2) of the empty table that came with that sheet and Paste.
Do Find/Replace, restricting the action to the Current Sheet.
Select the column, Copy, return to the original, Select the column, Paste.
Second method...
Starts the same way, but this time select and delete the table that comes with the New Sheet.
On the original table, click on any cell to make the table active and show the column and row reference tabs.
Use the mouse to grab the reference tab of the column you want to search, and drag it upward until you see it separate from the rest of the table. Continue to drag it until it is completely separated from the table, then drop it on the sheet. In the sidebar, you'll see a new table icon for this one column table. Drag the icon down to a position below the icon for the new sheet you created above.
When you drop the icon, the new sheet will be come the current sheet, and will come to the front with the one column table selected.
Do Find/Replace, restricting the action to the current sheet.
When finished, drag the one column table back to its original sheet, using the icon in the sidebar.
On the original sheet, click on a cell to make the one column table active. Grab the column reference tab and drag the column back to its original position in the original table.
Done.
Regards,
Barry

How can I change a VI that is linked to "NI_Excel.lvclass:Excel Find and Replace (str).vi

I need to create a new VI from, "Excel Find and Replace (str).vi", for my own purposes.
LabVIEW will not allow me to do this, because that VI belongs to, "NI_Excel.lvclass."
Intead of find and replace - I would like it to find a string, and tell me what column and row it is at.
Thank You
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Have you searched the discussion forums for this, even the Excel board?
You'd probably find what you want, or at least something close that you could learn from.
Can you open up the VI that you are asking to change? Even if you aren't permitted to copy it, if you open it and see what it does, you can recode it yourself using the appropriate ActiveX functions.

Find and replace source code

i have to change a menu in 100 sites. The find and replace
menu is helpful but.....the menu has Behaviors/Effects, the find
and replace tool has find and replaced to all sites but the effects
from the Behaviors won't work, and it shows me that the effects are
there in the Behaviors panel but when i pres F12 the effects are
not there.

I'm not sure I understand your question but please tell us
HOW you want to
change this menu? And do you *REALLY* mean 100 sites, or 100
files?

In the new Numbers, can I find and replace within formulas like I used to in Numbers'09?

I use Numbers with quite long formulas with reference to other tables. With Numbers'09, it was extremely useful to copy formulas and then use "find and replace" to change the terms within.
Did they remove this option? I don't seem to be able to do that with the new Version.
If it's still there, where do I find it?
If it's not there.... why would they remove it.
Thanks

Basically, I use it for payroll, taxes, and so on... I have one sheet per employee (which compiles their weekly payroll). I have then different sheets which makes the quarterly taxes calculation (state and federal taxes - 941, 940, W2, disability, UI, paystubs, tracks payments and deadlines, etc... ). It took me awhile to write all of the formulas, but now it does everything for me.
When I add an employee. I have to add a sheet, but also add a line in the calculation sheets. Because all the employee sheets are the same format, all I need to do (or used to now) was to copy the line above, and just change the reference name of the employee sheet within the formula (because there are several terms that are looked up, the reference name comes several time in the formula)... changing it manually is really annoying. What was taking me a minute or so, before, now takes me about 20 minutes. (between the different sheets, there are about between 75 to 100 changes in formulas per new employee - so the "find and replace" in formula only, was extremely useful).

In Edge Code can i do a find and replace?
