Find and replace Task name

Hi

I would like to perform a find and replace for an acronym that appears within several task name fields. When I do find and replace, I can't identify the 'task name' field from the drop down list. Can you assist please?
Thanks

RE: Find and replace Task name

Hi Emma

Thank you for your question

If you click on file-replace, you will come to the correct dialog box.
Type the acronym in the "find what" field, and its replacement in the "replace with" field.

The "task name" field is simply called "name". If the acronym is text within the name filed, then you should choose the test "within".

I hope this helps

Regards

Stephen
