Typically bulk search replace changes would be for things like transaction category/account, changes in names in description/notes. etc.

My GC data folder is currently 46mb (I have quite a lot of histrorical stuff).

Seems like quite a functional omission in GC to me - it must be quite a common user task - I don't have an old Quicken on this machine but I know it used to be a breeze with that.

Searching this list I found an an old response to the same question which indicated that this functionality would only be considered once GC had moved to a databese strcuture?

What are the workaraounds?

Thanks

John

There are ways to accomplish what you want, but no, there is no built-in ‘Find 
& Replace All’ feature.

I would ask, what are you trying to accomplish? What problem are you trying to 
solve?

and

How many transactions are we talking about?

Is there any functionality to do bulk search & replace on transactions?  My old 
2002 Quicken had this feature and it was really useful to do bulk 
changes/corrections.
