What version of Vim are you using? In version 7.0 on both Windows

Hi,
having marked a visual block with ctrl-v, I'd like to so a search /
replace only in that visual block. E.g. when selecting the right
block
in:
xx xx
xx xx
xx xx
xx xx
I'd to do something like s/xx/yy/g which applies only to the selected
block. How can I do this?
