Traditional find and replace tools force you to work in a sequential fashion. Each time a match is found, you must decide whether to replace it without knowing anything about the references that will follow. If you make a mistake, you may be unable to go back and correct it until you have completed the entire sequence of replacements. If you decide to abandon a search, you must carefully undo any changes that you have already made.
SPEED Ferret frees you from the guesswork and drudgery of sequential find and replace methods by breaking your task into four separate stages.
1. Search - SPEED Ferret searches your project to find all of the properties that match your search criteria. The results of the search are displayed in a data-sheet.
2. Review/Edit - You can simultaneously review all of the references that SPEED Ferret has located. You can select the specific rows that you wish to replace, and you can directly edit their replacement values.
3. Replace - When you are satisfied with the list of replacements, you can click the Save Replacements button to save all of your replacements in a single operation.
4. Test/Undo - After saving your replacements, you can exit from SPEED Ferret to test your changes. If you discover any changes that you wish to undo, you can restart SPEED Ferret and restore the previous session. After selecting specific replacements, you can click the Undo Replacements button to undo only those changes, leaving all other changes intact
