Narinder: That’s correct - it you’re using dotted notation, you’ll have to clean up the old code. The good news is features in newer versions make that much easier. The Find in design feature is much faster and far more flexible. Once you run a query and the results window opens, you can delete items from the list if you wish, you can drag and drop the content into a method window and then right click to open the methods (or Ctrl K), and you can “Replace in content” from the popup menu on the gears icon in the lower left.
