    Find and replace text

    I need to find and replace text, without the dialog box. What I have is about 200 drawings, I need to replace the same text in all of them. I use to have a lisp routine to do it, but could not find it. If anybody can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks

    Is it the same text in all the drawings? is it regular text, mtext, attribute, a portion of a sentence...
    If it was a single text for text replacement I could write a short lisp. If more complex, we'll track one down.
