    Data View Find and Replace.

    While working with a linked database in the data view it's not possible to use the Edit>Replace tool. This is a huge flaw. In every other application for working with a data set there is a way to use the find and replace function. My current work around involves either copy and paste (very time consuming) or opening the Access database to use Microsoft's fancy find and replace. I also use ArcMap quite a bit and working with data in their environment is much preferred and mainly because it's easy to make changes. My wish... while I continue to copy and paste... would be... to some day click on 'replace all'. It's not a big dream. :smileyhappy:

    Hope you're not holding your breath waiting for it.
    With a 64 bit os you can not even data link or data connect to a MS Access
    file.

    It's now been 876 days.  Have I missed any improvements to linked data in AutoCAD Map?  I'm using 2011.
