shoyur Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Hi, thx in advance. I tried to find this myself but could not I need to replace text, text is PLC inputs/outputs, ex.: I-8511 or Q-8824 .. etc Because its external I/O node #8, but suddenly i add a node between 7 and 8, so 8 becomes 9. I want to replace all ?-8??? with ?-9??? and of course only change the 8 to 9... Many Thanks to all. Quote
SLW210 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 FIND Find and Replace ~ Check AutoCAD help. There should be some LISPs around that will do it. http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?38894-Find-amp-Replace-Text Quote
SuperCAD Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Be cautious when using FIND. It may not "find" all instances of what you're looking for, or it may find other instances that you don't want to change (i.e. if you want to change ALL to ALT and don't adjust the settings, WALL and TALL will become WALT and TALT).

Dana W Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Find/Replace also chokes on many special characters (*&^%$#@!~). It reads some of them as text formatting values and will give you unpredictable results. Quote
