Michele,

I take it that you have version 7, and you mean Census Event and not Census Source. I do not have Census Events so inserted your phrase in a Birth Event.

Went to Seach and Replace, select Notes-Events, Anywhere in the field, Replace only found text.... It was found and replaced with blank as requested.

Hope this helps.

Here is what I want to do...

I want to replaces the words

able to read/write/speak English

with

able to read and write, speaks English


I have MANY of these in the notes section of a census event. No matter
which way I check off the boxes in the search and replace it tells me 0
replacements were made.

What am I doing wrong?
