[resolved] Replace and readonly files

I just reinstalled PHPEd after an OS install, so I picked up the latest version (5.2 build 5218), and I'm having trouble with the 'Replace in Files' feature. Basically it never finds a match.

If I do Find in Files, and search for a known piece of text, I get like 50+ matches. If I then open Replace in Files and use the same settings and search for the same text (to replace it with something else), it says:

Search string '<mytext>' not found

(<mytext> is the text I'm searching for).

Am I doing something stupid? Did it get broken in the latest build?

I knew I'd find the answer if I posted a question - basically, all the files I happened to be searching were read-only. So I guess it was saying it didn't replace anything, rather than it didn't find anything.

Perhaps a more informative message would be more...well, informative Smile
