Then you either press the "select All" button at the top of the pnae or you
click the ones you want to replace.

The "Replace 0" changes to "Replace 46" or whatever and becomes active.
Then you click it

Yes, thanks Steve, Jon put me out of my misery! :)

I dunno, sometimes you feel quite intelligent when
your code is coming together, then when something
as simple as that has you stumped, you feel quite
retarded!

Swings and roundabouts I guess. :)

All the best,

Mark.

No probelms, it finds
46 occurences. Cool. Then I type ButtonsCurrent
in the "Replace With" box at the bottom of the search
results but the button on the right-hand side is
permanently grayed out and says "Replace 0".

That's because you have 0 items selected.  You have to select which occurrences you want 
to replace.  There's a "Select All" button in the toolbar; command-A (or the 
Windows equivalent) should do it, too.  You can also shift-click to select or deselect 
individual ones.

I know, it's an unusual UI, but very handy, since in many cases, you want to 
replace ALMOST all occurrences of a particular string -- but not all, because 
this one here just happens to be the same word in some unrelated text, and that 
one there is actually the one place we need to not change because it's the 
accessor of the newly private property, or whatever.

Best,
- Joe
