Find And Replace version 9.00k        (REPLACE9.MDE)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:

  An add-in library for Microsoft Access 2000, 2002 (XP), 2003, 2007, 2010

  This program provides a "Find and Replace" function for Tables (searching
  design elements such as field names, not the data in the table), Queries,
  Forms, Reports, Macros, and Modules (Access only provides Find and
  Replace for Modules).  Find And Replace can be used to change names of
  objects through the entire database (as compared to MS Access itself which
  provides minimal built-in name change propagation).  In addition to
  facilitating name changes it has other uses, such as: a) changing the path
  in the connect string for attached tables (search for old path, replace
  with new; attachment gets refreshed) and b) searching for occurrences of a
  given function to enable you to change the parameters.  Additional features
  are available for registered users (e.g. cross-reference report).
  The intended user of this module is a programmer.

  This is an unregistered shareware version.  Complete license and registration
  information can be found with the program (in Replace9.hlp, and Replace9.mde).
  A registered user can enter their name and registration  code into the 
  software, and convert this copy into a registered version for their use.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brief installation instructions:
  1. Extract the replace9.mde (replace9x64.mde if you use 64-bit Office 2010) 
     and replace9.hlp files to a directory of your choice. 
     This directory must have permissions that allow write capability to the 
     user who will use Find and Replace. 
  2. Close any open Access sessions.  Start Access.  Open the replace9.mde file.
     A form should open that has an Install button.  Click this and it should 
     install. Find and Replace now appears as a choice on the Tools menu under 
     the Add-ins submenu. For Access 2007/2010 it appears in the Add-ins button 
     on the Database Tools tab.
  
Windows 7 / Vista / 2008 notes:
  With Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 2008 Microsoft does not include the 
  WinHelp32 help program.  You must install it yourself to be able to read the 
  help file. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607.  Also, files downloaded 
  from the internet will get tagged with an alternate data stream (in the file
  system; the Zone.Identifier stream) identifying it as from an external source 
  (and therefore not trusted).  The files you extract (via explorer) from a zip 
  file from the internet will have this set also.  The help file cannot be opened 
  until you right click the file, select properties and on the General tab you 
  should click the UNBLOCK button (if the button isn't there it isn't a problem).  
  This is also the same reason you will get a warning message when opening the 
  replace9.mde file.  If you do the same for this file (UNBLOCK it) it will 
  eliminate this warning.

Detailed installation instruction can be found in the replace9.hlp file.

Version History:    (dates are mm/dd/yy)

ver 9.00k  03/25/11
  This version adds supports for Access 2010 (with the same exception as Access 2007 
  that macros can only be searched, not modified).  Added a 64bit version.

ver 9.00j  04/30/10
  This version supports Access 2007, with the exception that macros can only be searched,
  not modified.  Added capability to change paths in linked OLE unbound controls.  
  Now allow Name property to be added to custom properties.   Installation via the 
  Access add-in manager is now disabled.  You must install by opening the replace9.mde 
  file directly and using the install button.  Repl9.ini file now maintained in the same 
  directory as replace9.mde.  Other miscellaneous fixes/changes. Added ODBC attachments 
  form (beta feature).

ver 9.00i  04/21/05
  Fixed problem where changing multiple form names in one pass did not change all the 
  occurrences.  This was a problem for only the form names; items within the form 
  (e.g. control names, recordsources, ...) were changed correctly. The problem also 
  occurred for report, macro, and module names.

ver 9.00h  08/20/04
  Fixed problem where macros were not being modified.

ver 9.00g  05/31/04
  Added support for Access adp projects. Updated to support Access 2003.  
  Cross-reference now looks at Search user-defined properties option on main
  form.  Fixed module problem when using the name builder.  New installation 
  procedure added.  Fixed problem where open forms get closed during search.  
  Added new datasheet log view where double clicking on the item takes you to 
  it in design view.  Added SubdatasheetName, LinkChildFields, LinkMasterFields 
  to query search.  Other minor fixes/enhancements.

ver 9.00f  06/24/02
  Miscellaneous fixes and minor enhancements.

ver 9.00e  07/02/01
  Updated to support Access 2002 (XP).  Fixed bug in cross-reference report when
  Generate Cross-Reference for Module Functions was selected whereby a function 
  name was not recognized (and therefore not cross-referenced) if the function 
  declaration had a line continuation before the left parenthesis.  Also, during 
  a normal Find and Replace operation, when text was found in a module, the 
  incorrect function name would be indicated if the function declaration had a 
  line continuation before the left parenthesis.  Added AddFindSpec method to API.
  Added features in Beta test (reattachment wizard and field type change wizard).

ver 9.00d  11/14/00
  Cross-reference reports now properly locate invocations of forms/reports in 
  code using the New keyword  (e.g. code such as dim abc as new form_myform).  
  TableFieldValue searches now allow searches of attached SQL tables (added the 
  dbSeeChanges option).    When Find and Replace must refresh the link to an 
  attached view (e.g. a SQL Server view) it now preserves any existing 
  pseudo-index (unlike the linked table manager).

ver 9.00c  06/27/00
  Fixed problem with logging "Debug Warning #1" (occurred when modifications
  were made to a source table of a linked table).  Fixed problem where brackets
  were added in replacement erroneously.  Fixed error 7952 in Set Control 
  Property wizard when setting the Name property.
          
ver 9.00b 04/03/00
  Added extra table search option in Options settings that will speed up 
  searches of linked tables.  Fixed name builder when used on subforms within a 
  form.  Fixed error when attempting to search subform that is within another 
  form that is in design view when Find and Replace is started.  Worked around 
  bug in Access where the SourceTableName returned by Access is truncated to 
  32 characters.  Other small enhancements and bug fixes.

ver 9.00a  03/02/00
  Fixed problem for registered users where 30 day expiration notice would 
  pop-up even though they were registered.

ver 9.00   02/26/00
  Initial Release of version 9 for Access 2000
