About this Find & Replace Text
The Find & Replace Text tool changes repeated text in a larger block without requiring a desktop editor. It supports case-sensitive or case-insensitive matching and reports how many replacements were made.
For related tasks, try Text Diff Checker, Case Converter or Text Reverser.
How the calculation works
The search term is treated as literal text rather than a regular expression, which avoids unexpected special-character behavior.
How to use it
- Paste the source text.
- Enter the text to find and its replacement.
- Choose case sensitivity and apply the replacement.
Practical example
Replacing “cat” with “dog” changes every matching occurrence according to the selected case setting.
