This macro enables you to manipulate DataCAD Text entities in various ways (search/replace, change case, increment/decrement numbers in text). Text can be found or manipulated using various options such as case sensitivity, whole words, or whole entities. View the user manual here.

Note that this macro can find and report on text contained in DataCAD's PText and MText entities, but it cannot actually manipulate those entities (although it can optionally add found PText/MText entities to a selection set to expidite subsequent manual processing).

Also note that this macro is compatible with DataCAD versions 23.00.03.01 and later only. For previous versions of DataCAD you could try the subtext macro available on DataCAD's download page, or for DataCAD 15 onwards you could also use my Text Replace macro which processes entities based on layer (it cannot select individual text entities for processing)


Spirit Compatibility: This macro is NOT compatible with Spirit.
