Re: MI Search & Replace
A lovely program called "TextPad" will do exactly what you want. You can find it at http://www.textpad.com. It's shareware, so if you like you pay.

Ben, Spatial Plus has a great utility which will do what you want - look at: http://www.spatialplus.com/prodbody.htm#EditPlus Hope this helps Chris Perry Systems Development CoOrdinator Parks Victoria, Melbourne, Australia Ph: 61 3 9816 6800 Fax: 61 3 9816 9876 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Ey, Benjamin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 1 October 1999 12:04 To: Mapinfo User List Subject: MI Search & Replace Dear Listers, Does anyone know of a way of replacing string sequences within multiple files in one go. For example, I have about 50 workspace files which I need to move to another project directory (along with the associated *.tab files etc.) and so I need to edit the workspace files to point to the correct location of the *.tab files. These files will all reside under the same 'parent' or project directory, so it's only the parent directory name that needs changing within the workspace files. Now, it's very simple to do this for a single file using a search and replace within WordPad or NotePad for example, but as there are so many of them I am after a faster solution. Someone told me I could acheive this from within Windows Explorer, but I can't see where or how. Please help!!
