Re: Search/Replace iSeries Members

Hey Vern!

At last after about 3 years on the list, a question that I can answer!

Done with V6.0.1 :
1. Upload the source members to an iseries project.
2. Switch to the Java perspective (I think it should work with the iseries project perspective as well)
3. Select the folder containing all the members to modify
4. In the menu, click Search, file, enter the text and select selected-resources for the scope.
5. Click Replace.

Let's celebrate!

I've never found this in WDSC or RDi - this is one place
where SEU can do it better - put 25 on all your first member
in WRKMBRPDM, press F13 to put 25 on all members, then hit
Enter. Put in the search text, enter
2(edit) for the member option, and hit Enter again.

Now is the cool thing - in the first member, press F14. Put
in your replacement text in the 2nd line, select the
replace-all option (if you dare), and say Y to allowing data
to move. Then hit F17, F3, Enter. Do the same in each
successive member - F17, F3, Enter. Lather, Rinse, Repeat -
is that right?

The options you set on the first member are maintained with
all members, as I recall.

Hi all,



It's been a while since I've done much iSeries work, and I

had a job

yesterday that required changing the library name in about

150 source

members. No problem, I thought, I'll just fire up WDSC, create a
filter over the source members, and do a search/replace on

them. Well,

for the life I me I couldn't find a way a way to do it,

which now has

me thinking that maybe there never was a way to do this. I

ended up

doing a search to bring up a list of members, and then

manually editing each one (yuk!).

I'm running WDSC 7.0.0. Is the "replace" option in there somewhere
that I've missed, or was this never possible? If not, does

the recent

version of RDI have this functionality?
