    • In the Find What box, enter the search string.
    • In the Replace With box, specify the text string you want to use to replace the found string.
    • In the Ignore Case option, clear the check box if you want the search to find every instance of the search string, regardless of its case.
    • In the Restrict Search To option, select the check box if you want to restrict the search to just one CUI file. Then, under this option, select a CUI file from the drop-down list.
    • To step through each instance of a found string before replacing it, click Replace. In the search results text that is displayed, review the location of the matching search string, its exact position in the tree node or Properties pane, and the number of instances in which the command or search string occurs.
