You could always write a program to do it I suppose. :) The main problem I see is that the project contains so many different types of files. Looking in PRG's wouldn't be too bad, but inside the various memo fields in scx's, frx'sm and vcx's could be more complicated to handle.

I wonder if running the documenting wizard and then searching the reports might be an easy approach? One thing, if there is fairly good coding practice in the project in general, it shouldn't be too hard. For example variables and objects are defined in such and such a place, and not too hidden. There may be a third party framework that makes this kind of search a snap too, though I don't use any myself.
