WORKSHEET - find and replace script


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Recently I came across this useful script (made by @Pat Stanford) and I would really like to use it as a way to replace outdated layer name in criteria for many my spreadsheet cells within one worksheet. 

Can this script work with multiple cells selected, or it only function with one cell at the time?

 

And is there around maybe updated version of script to more recent software versions?

 

Thanks.

 

Here is a script:

Var

S1,S2,S3 :String;
N1 ,N2,N3,N4,N5,N6,N7 :Integer;
H1 :Handle;


Begin
S1:=StrDialog('Enter Substring to Find','Loc1');
S2:=StrDialog('Enter Substring to Replace With', 'Loc2');

H1:=GetTopVisibleWS;
GetWSSelection(H1,N5,N5,N1,N2,N5,N3,N4,N5);

For N5:=N1 to N3 do
Begin
For N6:=N2 to N4 do
Begin
GetWSCellFormula(H1,N5,N6,S3);

N7:=Pos(S1,S3);
If N7 <> 0 then
Begin
Delete(S3,N7,Len(S1));
Insert(S2,S3,N7);
SetWSCellFormula(H1,N5,N6,N5,N6,S3);
end;
end;
end;
ClrMessage;

END;

Run(FindandReplaceInWorksheet);

yeah, now i digged out that script, too.

 

Incredible somehow, that there is no "find and replace"-command in Vectorworks-Worksheets ;-D.

Like Excel without find-replace...

 

such a pity, that you can't find & replace sub-rows (unfortunately technically unthinkable, imho)
