Re: customize find results
we'll probably go a step further in 18 and write a routine to rename everything. now if i can get a ST/Atom grammar/tab file so we can do edits outside of the 4d editor more easily...

Re: customize find results
I'm not aware of any built-in feature to do that. I would export a copy to 4D 18 project mode and use something like BBEdit or TextMate where you have grep and other features.

customize find results
4d 17 is there a way to customize the way objects display in the find results? if you do a find in database for some code, you get a list, but the list includes things in the format formname.objectname which isn't very helpful when objectname is "field2", because that's what 4d named the object when the form was created with the form wizard instead of the object source, e.g. "address" -- On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth On the second day, God created the oceans.
