>>Hi Mike,
>>You could open the PJX by using USE Myproject.PJX and extract all the form names, then open up each form by USE MyForm.SCX, Locate the right record and use STRTRAN to do the replacement and then recompile all the files.

in filer (2.6 and before), you could search for text across all files. don't know if the new version can still do that or not...
