Thank you for your response David. However, as I noted yesterday — my local time — I already took care of the problem by starting all over. It took me about an hour to get things right, and even better than before. Kind regards, Bill K. > On Feb 27, 2017, at 5:26 PM, David Wagner wrote: > >

How to Undo Multi-File Find and Replace

I kind of suspect what I am going to be told, but let me ask anyway with a glimmer of hope. I have just spent a few hours cleaning up the HTML code in about 1256 docs in one of my virtual host’s directories. I just did a final multi-file find and replace, and then realized when I got a broken
