Hello everybody,

today I want to speak about very useful feature in Visual Studio.

Sometime you may need some kind of source of inspiration from Acumatica source code. But quite often that source of inspiration have text, which is scattered over multiple lines of code.

For example, you want to find file which has PXProjection text in one line, and word SOOrder in the next line. How to make such a search? Window below appears once you click on Ctrl + Shift + F:

with help of .*\r?\n.* you can make search over multiple files. Take a note of what Visual Studio showed to me in output results once I've clicked on Find All:

and then, you can double click on any of those lines, and make sure, that you found something, that is PXProjection, with SOOrder in some of the next lines:

Summary

With such simple technique you can easily hunt for any lines of code in Acumatica framework, and enhance your search results.
