Are you referring to searching the code on a find & replace basis, or the actual records in the db? James Goodman

The actual replacemnt of strings in Forms, reports, querys..etc, Also if possible the replacments of field values in Tables.

Thanks in advance

find & replace of code is simple. Just use the replace (edit-replace) tool from the main access menu. This will allow you to search for strings within a procedure, module or entire database, & then replace them with something else. This can also be done for fields in the database if you know which fields need updating & they aren't too numerous. However, if they are numerous it would take forever.... James Goodman

Yeah it does work great when working with code. But it is not so good if I am changing label names or maybe I just want to know every form that uses a certain field.

Speed ferret and ReplaceWiz will do just that ,i.e: they will replace label names and control names in forms and reports ,but they are not freeware , do you guys know of any freeware out their
