Hi all,
FM 7.2: Is there a way to Find a cross-ref and Replace it with another
cross-ref?
A blooper occurred in an FM doc, wherein a whole lot of cross-refs (all
pointing to the same target) got replaced by a different cross-ref.
TIA

If you create one instance of the correct cross-reference, you can copy that to
the clipboard, and then do a Find/Change that uses the By Pasting option in
the Change box. You'll still have to look at each cross-reference you find to
see if it is one you need to change, but at least you can

Hi, Steve.
Fred's method works well and I use it when the number of changes are relatively
low.
However, for large numbers of changes, your method of editing the MIF file is
what has worked best (and usually quickest) for me - it has the side benefit of
providing a MIF Flush that can clean up

Xrefs in MIF look like this:
To a para with a Heading 1 tag in same file...
XRef
XRefName `Heading Page'
XRefSrcText `53801: Heading1: Heading 1'
XRefSrcIsElem No
XRefSrcFile `'
Might be easiest to export to MIF and do a global replace with a text editor.

It sounds like you want to revert to the previous version of the document (a
good argument for a revision control system).
Fred's second suggestion of moving the cross reference marker is a good one,
but you'd better make sure that not cross refs exist that are supposed to go
to the location
