This is almost too minor to mention but here goes anyway.

When you highlight multiple addresses in a table and right-click it gives you the option to change the decription(s). However, it only changes the first record if you do so, instead of all selected records. Was it intended that way?

Maybe there is a way, but i can't find anyone. I also want to change multiple descriptions.

One way, although not ideal, would be to highlight all of the addresses/script entries that you want to change, and hit Ctrl+C to copy. Then, in notepad++ (or similar), paste your code. You may see these entries:

<Description>"Auto Assemble script"</Description>
<Description>"No description"</Description>

Simply do a 'search and replace'.

So, in the above example, you might use this:

Search for: <Description>"Auto Assemble script"
Replace with: <Description>"Cool Cheat"

When you are finished, select all and copy. Paste back in to your cheat table.

@Methos thanks for mentioning that option.

I can do that search&replace also by dragging the .ct in a plain text file. It's not very practical is all.

try smart edit on the selected entries (rightclick->change record->smart edit addresses, or shiftl+cltr+alt+enter)

you have to fill in the original description first, so only usable if they all have the same description (e.g No description)

Didn't know about Smart Edit. I don't recall that ever being available before. Is this new to 6.3? In any event, thanks.
