Protel DXP Global Edit

I have used Protel 98 for some time.
I am now playing about with DXP and I am a little confused about what I knew
as "global editing". With DXP there seems to be a function described as
"find similar parts". When I select this, I can't seem to set the parameters
for a satisfactory change, such as changing all the designator sizes on the
PCB. I can't seem to find any advice on this subject on any of the forums or
the on-line help.
Anyone here know?

Kind regards

Graham,
GO to their website and download their app notes and white
papers. There is one specifically on the DXP equivalent to the
old global edit. A lot of their app notes and white papers are
quite informative, you won't feel you have wasted the time to
download them. There are even a few videos showing certain
specific topics.

Thanks. I see now that I was a little impatient.
