Hi,

FILEAID option 3(Utilities) > option 6(search and update). Key-in the DSN and the text to be replaced. When prompted for confirmation about to perform update or not - select 'yes' and the new changes will be reflected in the code.

You can (if I'm not mistaken) generate a batch Job also for this.

Thanks Anuj. I have created a batch job for this and it works. The only change I need to do is change the "text" I want ot change every time.
