Search/find "set the script to" in all scripts of all objects in all stacks

I used to be able to do this but after a long hiatus I can't remember how. Of course, IF I could search for a string in all scripts of all objects in all stacks I could chase it down. It may have involved copying the script to... something then using offset() to... something then setting the script to the result or something.

Any handler or function name to get going with this?
Thanks,

Hi.

I used to be able to do this but after a long hiatus I can't remember how.

Unless you are remembering the "ss" handler in the Home stack in HC, perhaps the "Find and Replace..." feature in the "Edit" menu would help? This is a very powerful tool.

Thanks Craig, Find and Replace is the solution. Replace is optional.
