Thanks Douglas. Yes, the Find in design has been amazing since v11 (I think?),
certainly I have used it a _lot_ in recent years in v15! The next best thing to
4D Insider, but still not anywhere near as good ;)

Subject: Re: Dot Notation in Legacy 4D Code
Narinder:
That’s correct - it you’re using dotted notation, you’ll have to clean up
the old code. The good news is features in newer versions make that much
easier. The Find in design feature is much faster and far more flexible.
Once you run a query and the results window opens, you can delete items
from the list if you wish, you can drag and drop the content into a method
window and then right click to open the methods (or Ctrl K), and you can
“Replace in content” from the popup menu on the gears icon in the lower
left.
