using Scriptpro to do a find and replace in ps layouts

I've installed the migration tools and want to do a find and replace for a text string in all ps layouts in all dwgs in a certain directory. How can I create a script to do this? Thx Tom Hanley

Find and replace doesn't have a command line version. so you can't make a script to use it. Try searching cadalog.com or caddepot for a command line versio equivalent.

you could write a lisp to do the find and replace portion then write a script to load and run the lisp then use scriptpro to call the script or you could do it with objectDBX hth Mark

Thanks for all the suggestions folks!

Visit http://www.caddzone.com/acadx, download AcadX and have a look at the SuperFind.dvb sample application, and the AcadXTextProcessor class, if you prefer to roll your own.
