How to edit text on multiple layouts

[harveyXRS9Z]

Hello,

Is it possible to edit text on multiple layouts simultaneously?

I'm working on a drawing where there are identical text elements, e.g. the date, on each layout.  Can I change all of them at the same time.  I've looked on the Forums but not easily finding an answer to this.

I'm using AutoCAD LT 2022.

Thanks

Take a look to command: FIND

Doesn't matchs perfect, but in other cases:

and also command: FILTER

You can select all Text by using Filter and [apply to] ALL<enter><enter>

Change your Text value in properties palette now.

I'm using AutoCAD LT 2022.

Thanks for that, the FIND command is what I was needing and works well.
