search for string

Hello,

I'm programming an app in LV7.0.  The app is an expansion of a previous app, and I need to find where various strings are used througout the program.  How do I search for a string in a vi, and all sub vi's, of a given application?

Thanks.

From the top-level VI, Edit > Find and Replace; select the Text radio button and search away.

Do you have one string with many reference to that string or are there many strings?

 

I do not believe that there is an easy way to look for strings inside all of your vi's.
