Quick find and replace allows you to search the text in a
currently active macro editor window. The selection moves from match to match,
allowing you to review each match within its context.
In the currently active macro editor window, quick find and replace can search
or replace through a macro forward from the insertion point. The search or
replace automatically continues past the end of the macro into the unsearched
portion. A message appears when the entire macro has been searched or replaced.
Note: The matches found are not listed in
the Find Results window
To display the Replace dialog box, use the Replace… command on the Edit > Find
and Replace menu. The following is an example of the Replace dialog.

The following table describes each property in the Replace
