Any way to do a global search and replace?

I have a fairly large complicated solution, and I've been informed that I have to change one word to another...is there any way to globally search and replace the text in dialog messages??

Thanks...Sandy

In custom messages/show messages, no. This is one of the things that developers complain about, and rightfully so, IMHO.

Just to cover all bases, if it's a field you need to change, you could use the Replace Contents command, and replace with:


Substitute(fieldName,"originalWord","newWord")
