 |

Hi!
I want to search and replace different words in a text.
For example:
Check text file for 'text'
replace 'text' by 'bits'
and so on...
What have I to do? |

Have a look at StringReplace
If you are replacing a string from a text file have a look at Loop (Read Files and folders) as well.

Also, almost every editor other than Notepad offers this simple functionality.  |

I must have a different version of Notepad, 'cause Find & Replace is there.

*smacks head*
I have a good excuse for overlooking it - I'm crippled by an insurmountable bias against any company that starts with micro and ends with soft.  I could still name quite a few reasons why I prefer editor² over notepad. |
