I have FLA files from a client with numerous MovieClips and buttons

started using Flash with AS3 and have always used a Document Class and
placed my ActionScript in external .as files.
I am trying to search through the ActionScript to find some text.  Is their
any way (tool etc.) to search through all ActionScript in a FLA?   Why
doesn't Adobe put in such a search function, it sounds so basic to me.  Or
am I not understanding something about Flash usage?

Thanks.

Hi,

   Yes and it's a really powerful tool too:
Ctrl + F, or Edit->Find & Replace... (CTRL + F becomes second nature in Adobe's stuff)

You can search for "Text", or other things (leave "Text" selected, type in your term & make sure the ActionScript box is ticked, then press Find Next).

   You can replace too...

It's v. similar to Dreamweaver's find & replace, but not as "dangerous" as it won't let you modify external files..

   HTH
