Using Find and Replace
Type of search
The search takes place within programs and symbol tables, depending upon the currently selected item on the
Project Workspace or the currently selected window. If for example the focus is on the Project Workspace
when the search is started then all searchable items within the workspace will be searched in tree order. When
the search is started from a section, or from the tree set at either section or symbol table level then only that item
will be searched. If the search is started at program level then only the local symbol table and the sections
relating to that program level then only the local symbol table and the sections relating to that program are
searched. When the search is started at PLC level then global, local and all sections will be searched. If the
search is started at the project level than all PLCs and their global and local symbol tables and sections will be
searched.
Note that if search is started when the focus is on the I/O Comment view, the search will occur only on this view.
