Hi Xia,

I have designed BFind for use with ASCII characters, I cannot guarantee that it will work with Unicode characters.

Hi Lee
BFind is very useful.
It will be better for us asians if it would work with Unicode characters.
Do me a favor,please!

BFind is also freeware; if you are unsatisfied with it then pay for a dedicated program that will handle Unicode.

Oh...
Where is the program？Can you provide the Trial Version or some animation?
By the way,can I get the source code if I pay for this dedicated program?
Thanks

I don't have such a program, but no doubt there will be one online somewhere...

Lee Mac, I just found your great program. Thanks!

Is there was a way to perform the operation on a selection?

Since this program is predominantly aimed at providing users with a batch find and replace solution, restricting the operation to a selection of objects could only apply to the active drawing, since there would be no way (or at least it would be incredibly difficult) to detect that same set of objects across multiple drawings. If you necessarily require the operation performed on a selection of objects, I would recommend that you use the in-built AutoCAD Find command which offers this functionality and would also be far more robust than my program.
