Find and Replace dialog question

[Jim Essinger <esinger@xxxxxxxx>]

Greetings!

Using the find and replace dialog is cumbersome. I want to replace multiple
occurrences of the same find string, but to view them before they are
replaced.  Not all need to be replaced.  I need to do this over multiple
files I have loaded into Code editor.  I can/have set up a key  (alt 'N'
with find next macro) set that will let me find the next occurrence of the
string in the find prompt, but have no way to do a replace without bringing
up the dialog box, and clicking on the replace button.  Is there a way
(command to put in a macro - or some other way to assign to a key) to tell
find and replace to replace this occurrence and find the next occurrence?

Also have a problem that in a browse only file you can not do a find
because the Find/Replace dialog box won't open in a browse session.

Any thoughts on how to speed up this process would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
