    Aliciar,

       You can create a new book and put all the files you want to change in the book. You can then do a global change on all files in the book. It doesn't matter if the files are also components of other books. No need to update the new book. Once you've made the change, you can delete the new book.

    What version of FM? Newer ones can affect multiple open files.
