    Hello!
    I've got to serch&replace the same text (IE: to search "today" and replace with "yesterday) on all the DWG files (ACad 2005) inside the same directory
    Is there any script (or something elese) that can help me?
    Thanks a lot

    If you were to consider third party software, read on.

    The Drawing > Find/Replace tool in ToolPac 8.0 from
    http://www.dotsoft.com will do this. You can even specify additional
    find requirements like a certain layer, etc.

    You could look into the program called Hurricane. It isn't free but it doesn't cost too much. I use it. You tell it what commands to execute in each drawing and pick an unlimited amount of drawings and it will generate a script for you. It saves a lot of time.

    Look here for the program.
