If you want to change all of them, then modify the one they are already linked to, or save the new one with the name of the older one. If you don't want to update all usages, then it is hard for LV to know which you want to update. You can automate your task somewhat by putting your new one on the clipboard and using paste-replace. Select the old and hit Ctl-V instead of right-click>>replace>>VI... and selecting your file. You can also use Find to look for your control. It will produce a list in the file results where you can double click on each, inspect, and determine if you want to Ctl-v. Greg McKaskle
