All,

 

I’m happy to report that, based on this discussion, we’ve been able to include search and replace for null values as a new feature in the soon-to-be-released TMS 2014.  Thanks again for your suggestions and for helping extend the features of TMS.

 

Best,

Danielle

Boo on not being able to do it – and yes, this would be an extremely useful feature!! 

Thanks all for the replies – and maybe Gallery Systems will give us a present and it’ll be in TMS2014! Not that’ll it’ll help me for the 5000ish record project I’m working on this summer…..

 

Diane.

Funny this appears now - I was also trying to perform this (unsuccessfully) earlier this week and had started an email to send out and see if anyone else knew of a way to do this. It would be extremely useful and time saving!

 

Thanks, 

Karen

Diane -

 

Our understanding is that you cannot search on null and replace with data using Search/Replace, but we have asked Gallery Systems to work on adding this function. Our users could really use this.  Perhaps if others chime in it might encourage making this happen :)

Hello all –

 

Wondering if anyone has any tricks for me. I’m working on groups of bulk loaded records, and trying to update the Cataloguer Field using the Search and Replace utility. Currently the field has nothing in it, and I want to add the cataloguers name to all the records so we don’t have to do it record by record.

I am able to do it when there is something in the field, but if I don’t put anything in the Search it just sits there and doesn’t do a thing.

Anyone have any ideas what I could put into the field to get it to work?

 

Thanks!

Diane.
