I would do it this way. Set the groups pane to show authors; then
locate the White, F. entry; then change it, thereby changing all the
White, F.'s to White G.
Of course, if there are some legitimate White, F.'s, you want to be
careful; if there are not too many it is probably easier to just
change them by hand, once you've isolated the group of them.

Hi!
I am trying to replace a wrong first name initial in the author
field of my database, with no success.
Example
White, F. and Black, R and Doe, J. and Harris, B.
I'd like to change the F.
My steps:
edit-find-database find and replace.
field: author
find: White, F.
replace: White, G
no success (it says nothing found)
thanks
