Thanks Dave, the conversion process while functional, is a mess to maintain. I was hoping someone had a utility to search and replace or there was one built in to VFP

In fact I would do this for All the components, not just buttons on the basis that I may well want to change other base properties. That way you can change any other standard attributes easily. Dave -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Madigan Sent: 14 December 2011 06:13 To: [email protected] Subject: Search and replace special effect and fontbold properties After doing a conversion from Foxpro for Windows 2.5 to VFP 9.0 , I find it takes forever to change the properties on buttons. Is there a way to do a search and replace and change all the button commands to special effect 3D and font bold = .T.? I don't even care if everything got the same two attributes. Grabbing a group of buttons doesn't work because of the nature of the conversion. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
