Data Type

Description

Field

The name of the field to search.

Test

Optional

String

The type of comparison made between Field and Value. Can be one of the following comparison strings:

Comparison string Description
"equals" The value of Field equals Value.
"does not equal" The value of Field does not equal Value.
"is greater than" The value of Field is greater than Value.
"is greater than or equal to" The value of Field is greater than or equal to Value.

"is not within" The value of Field is not within Value.
"contains" Field contains Value.
"does not contain" Field does not contain Value.
"contains exactly" Field contains exactly Value.

Value

Optional

Variant

The value to compare with the value of the field specified in Field.

Replacement

Optional

Variant

Use "" (an empty string) to clear Field where it meets the test specified by Test and Value.

ReplaceAll

Optional

Variant

True if all occurrences of Value are replaced. False if only the first occurrence is replaced. The default value is False.

Next

Optional

Variant

True if Project searches down for the next occurrence of matching search criteria. False if Project searches up for the next occurrence. The default value is True.

MatchCase

Optional

Variant

True if the search is case-sensitive. The default value is False.

FieldID

Optional

Variant

The field identification number can be one of the PjField constants. FieldID takes precedence over any Field value.

TestID

Optional

Variant

The test identification number can be one of the PjComparison constants. TestID takes precedence over any Test value.

SearchAllFields

Optional

Variant

If True, replace the specified value in all available fields. The default is False. SearchAllFields takes precedence over Field and FieldID.

Return Value

Boolean

Remarks

Using the ReplaceEx method with no arguments, or without specifying Field, Test, and Value, displays the Replace dialog box that has options set for the previous state. If you set SearchAllFields to True, programmatic use still requires values for the Field, Test, and Value parameters.

Example

Either line in the following example replaces "Bad" with "Good", within the set of all available fields.

Sub Bad2Good() 
 ReplaceEx Field:="Name", Test:="contains", Value:="Bad", Replacement:="Good", _ 
 ReplaceAll:=True, SearchAllFields:=True 
 ReplaceEx Field:="xx", Test:="xx", TestID:=pjCompareContains, Value:="Bad", Replacement:="Good", _ 
 ReplaceAll:=True, SearchAllFields:=True 
End Sub
