I am reverse engineering an application process.  The application is on Oracle 10G DB.  I want to search all DB Objects for a particular text string.  I am using SQL Navigator as the development tool.

Example >  I am looking for the string: "insert into his_call".  There are over 2,000 db objects.  I could open each object and perform a text search but, that would take a very long time.

Does anyone have a solution to perform this search ?

Do you mean you want to search for that string in all text columns of all tables ?  Or do you mean search all code objects like triggers, stored packages etc ?   If the latter, you could do:

select * from sys.dba_source
where lower(text) like '%insert into his_call%'
