Strange S&R case

Hello,

I have a number of files open in a workspace in which are found:

htm #pg

Which I need to change to:

htm#pg

I have xed Match case
All Documents

But in every attempt the only file that is changed is the active document.

Can anyone explain this/point to a solution?

I can't reproduce that.

Have you checked that the text you want to change is in all documents exactly the text you are searching for?

Hello Ben,

Thank you for checking this out. Yes I have checked in the other folders and there are examples of the problem in them. None changed.

I have repeated the sequence several times.

Strange.

Again thanks for giving it a shot.


EDIT:
Just as an experiment I set up a new workspace and created two new files with the item to be replaced and S&R worked as advertised. So the working hypothesis is that there is something in the documents I am working on that is the driving force of this error. Since these files have numerous other issues I am leaving it at that.

PS: I have send e-mail notice when there is a reply, but did not receive any notice here.
