I have had to do this many times.  I have used basic but now I use NoteTab Light.  It is an excellent text editor software with it's own clip language that is very good.  I also use it to automate many of the redundant tasks that need to be done.  The best thing is it's free!  To download it go to www.notetab.com.  The free version does every thing I need or want it to do.  If you decide to try this software let me know I have already written a clip that could be easily modified.

Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Mass Text Editing Utility

Hello all,
 
I was wondering if any of you have ever run across some sort of text editing utility that will allow a search and replace operation on all text files in a given directory.
 
I have about 5,000 CNC programs that need a couple changes in their tool descriptions and I really do not want to do them all by hand!
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Rex Shea
