Here's what I use. You feed in the string to word wrap and how it is formatted (font, size, etc.) and it returns the string with line breaks. Bruce Word Wrapping.vi Word Wrapping (Entire Column).vi

If you right click on the project name in the project tree, there is an option to "Find Items With No Callers".

It grabs all controls from a FP. Then extracts the labels and text dependent on the control type. PM Get Control Text.vi uses recursion so it will drill down into nested clusters. Passa Mak creates a list to save to a file since the save and load are separate, but for a regex replacement you could put a write node immediately after the read node in the PM Get Control Text.vi and modify the string in between.

Hi sydney, I'm pretty sure that there is not a solution for directly catching events from subs that where not handled by the subs themself. There may be many solutions to get aware in a calling VI of something that you do in sub VIs. But if you like to do it with an event here is a little example VI (screenshot only) for something that should do what you need. Uh, little bit to slow for that forum. Daklu posted a similar solution in his post Regards, Frank

Its not too hard to find and replace text. Passa Mak does it for controls, indicators and tip strips. It also has a diagram scanner to extract string constants. It wouldn't take much of an imagination to modify the the relevent bits for descriptions, revision history, decoration text etc. Although its not designed for regex replacements, it covers a lot of the bases you'd need or, at the very least, show you how to go about it.

Hello Jolt, the 'reference' on the left should be a dotNET constructor node which could be found in 'Connectivity/.NET' palette. After dropping on the BD one can select the appropriate constructor (have a look at its context menu). Within the upcoming window choose 'Microsoft.VisualBasic (8.0.0.0)', or whatever version will show up there, from 'Assembly' control. Some objects will be listed. Select 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO / FileSystem' and there you are . Interesting stuff, but hard to find Regards, Frank btw: there are no silly questions, only silly answers

I've managed this. It deleted 100 files in only a few seconds (and put them in the Recycle Bin).
