Replace By or Change By Choices

 

 

 

Normally, you will just want to replace an entire field with something different. You may also want to change only the found text, like your word processor, or multiply the field by factor (for instance, 1.15 to raise the value by 15%). All of this can be done by choosing the appropriate Replace By mode in the Replace or Change Tagged dialog box.

 

Here are the Replace/Change By choices available:
