When using symbols to refer to addresses in RSLogix 500, if I have symbols like AA_123, AA_124, etc., and i want to use search and replace to change all of them in one ladder file to BB_123, BB_124, etc., I can't figure out how to do it. If I use the search and replace function to replace AA with BB in "symbol names" only, it actually replaces the entire symbol with just BB. It's not just replacing part of the symbol name. Doing an export doesn't seem to help either because the ladder mnemonics use the real addresses like B3:0/2 or whatever. Has anyone managed to get search and replace inside symbol names to work? |

Scott, Have you tried saving your program as an L5K file then opening in wordpad and performing the search and replace there? |
Scott, I tried a CSV export, modified the symbol name, then brought the database back in, and it successfully updated my symbols. How did you do your export?
@Jeremy Sluyters: You can only export the "database" to CSV, which is basically the memory, symbols, etc. I want to modify the logic itself (rungs). Did you manage to export the rungs to CSV or any kind of ASCII file? All I did was copy out the mnemonics, but that doesn't include symbol names.
