Hi Frank,
First thing, it is not going to be that easy even if you use
a powerful replacement tool like BKReplacem. You need to replace
'Product Name' with simlar code to the following .
<uservariable name=Product_Name x-format=Product_Name
x-value='product name' x-showvalue>Product
Name</uservariable>
Secondly, your are also going to have to be a little careful
using a search and replace tool as you need to think of all the
places where the product name may be used and replacement is not
appropriate. Do you use the product name in a filename for example
- if so the filename used in any topic hyperlinks may end up
braking the link.
If I were in your boots I'd create an output file of the
project and run a search with search highlight on. Track all
occurences and yes (not what you wanted to hear sorry) replace each
occurence manually.
Luckily working with variables in RH7 is a lot easier the
RH6. You can simply drag and drop the variable from the pod to a
topic.
There is one other trick that I can think of that may help
you with this process.
1. Firstly, when you create you variable, make sure you use
exactly the same Variable Value as the text used for the current
Product Name throughout your project.
2. Find and select the product name within the topic.
3. Right click to display the shortcut menu and then select
the Add to - User Defined Variable option.
If the selected text matches the variable name you set up, it
is automatically convereted into a variable.
Hope that helps
Craig
