>i need to replace several lines of code with a single line of code in about 300 forms and programs, which is the best way to do this?

-Backup
-Adir() to get forms.
-loop and Use (m.formsPath+aForms[m.ix])
-locate your existing code in methods and replace (strtran(),stuff() etc)

or: use scctext to get their text versions, update in text, use scctext to create back forms.
