This tool allows the user to change a value for a particular data field. To access this
tool, select the Replace command located under the Edit menu.
In the example above, a Text Comment
field containing 'THIS VALUE' will be
replaced with 'THAT VALUE' in all tag sessions.
The replacement window has the following property settings:
Property Effect
Field to
Replace
This setting is a list of all data fields in a tag
session except the Tag Code
field.
Pattern To
Match
This is the value, or pattern, that P3 will search
for. Depending on the type of field selected, this
value may be restricted to a value from a drop-
down list.
Replacement
Value
This is the value, or pattern, that P3 will replace
or append. Depending upon the type of field
selected, this value may be restricted to a value
from a drop-down list.
Search The Search and Replace operation can target the
current Tag session only (if one is open), or All
Tag Sessions in the P3.mdb database. The
Replace operation can be constrained to specific
rows by first using the Search
function to identify
the records of interest.
Append Value
Instead of
Replacing
If this setting is checked, the replacement value
will be appended to the field instead of
overwriting the search pattern. This option is only
available for certain text fields.
Match Case Searches for case-sensitive occurrences of a
pattern in a field. This limits the search so it only
locates text that matches the upper- and
lowercase characters you enter.
Use Regular
Expressions
This setting is available for fields that contain
text. If it is checked, the search uses regular
expressions to determine a match.
