    I start recording macro,
    Then I click ^H + "replace All" a string.

    Then I save the macro.

    by calling this macro on a new file, the string is not replaced.
    please assist

      At present, the macro records commands & keystrokes to the edit window and to the menu, but not to the dialogs such as the search dialog.

      Sometimes you can work around this limitation.  In your case, it might work to skip the macro altogether and just leave the search/replace dialog open, retaining its information, while you switch to a different file.

      Regards.

        Is it not possible to add the required commands directly into the xml file?
