Jay...

OK - So I'm a bit too windows centric! hehehe

I'd like to dispute that Homesite is fine for this. I've had a ton of
problems with Homesite finding simple text strings, while TextPad has found
them. I just don't have any faith in the Homesite external search, much
less in search and replace.

YMMV
