Batch rename resources

Hi, Does anyone have a script that allows me to change the name of multiple resources (symbols, walls styles, hatches etc.) at once? Preferably a search and replace kind of thing that works for all types of resources. Alternatively something that does this for one type of resource at a time. I have found similar scripts for renaming or pre/suffixing class names... thanks in advance.

Here's a Marionette script that will allow you to batch rename resources using find and replace. Be aware that this also will query hidden records in your file, so be wary about that. (If you want to filter records out, they are type 47.) You can further filter the list using the "Get Type" node to narrow down to Symbols, Gradients, Hatches, etc. A list of object types can be found here: http://developer.vectorworks.net/index.php/VS:Function_Reference_Appendix#objects This
