The Global Search and Replace works fine with standard events on e.g. occupations and places. However, I can't find a way of replacing the contents of the location/description column for a custom event. Am I missing something? Using BK 6.5.11. -- Howard Slatter Cambridge, England

To Howard Slatter If you are trying to change something for a custom event, it is treated like a Location, so you would use Change only Location on the global search and replace. Just be careful that it does not affect other locations that you do not want to change. Perhaps you can send me a private email with what exactly you are trying to change from and to.
