mTAB already gives users the option to search for a text string in almost every window with text in it. Well now, within the mTAB spreadsheet environment,
we have an extremely useful Search/Replace feature that allows users to make custom changes to any text of their choosing. To use this feature, the
screenshot below illustrates selection from the spreadsheet view of the Edit, Replace menu items.
After running a tab, lets imagine we realize that one of the companies has changed their name. We want to find all occurrences of the old company
name “Brand B”, and replace it with the new company name “Brand B, Inc.”. The example below displays the settings used, before clicking on the
“Replace All” button to execute the change.
The changes made will remain intact throughout other views in mTAB, based off the spreadsheet view, like the Top N Report shown belown.
This feature also makes it easy for users to select standard text strings found within the mTAB spreadsheet and to replace them. There is a drop down
menu under the Find What box that lists different mTAB standard text strings like Mean/Weighted Average and Weighted Sample Total Count that
can also be replaced.
