Replace EG Tasks

hogego — Wed, 06 Mar 2019 05:36:12 GMT

Hi all.

I'd like to change the column names of the data source a lot and to replace the EG tasks that use it all at once.
So I tried to unzip the project file, replace the xml target, and try to return it with zip, but it will result in an error and it will not work.
Is there a way to replace xml in bulk?

Thanks.

You might be better off changing the column name to the name you previously used once in your initial use of it.

Or create a view mapping the new names to the old names.

Months ago, I put in a enhancement request to allow global search-and-replace capability within a project, FWIW.
