"Search and Replace" feature for lyrics. I scan music and use Composer for edits. sometimes the scanner makes the same error over and over on some lyrics like "ii" for "ti." Editing can be tedious.

Hello Bill,

In lieu of the specific Search and Replace feature that you have requested, you might want to try editing the lyrics in an external text editor, using its Search and Replace feature. See the User Guide topic on "Editing Lyrics Using an External Text Editor" under Editing Types of Text / Lyrics.

Cheers
-- Mark
