delete all browses

Question

It would be great if functionality to delete all browses could be added. when building workflows I am often using many browses all over to understand the full population of data and how it is impacted by transformations. however once it is built i would love to be able to delete all of these so that it speeds up the workflow and reduces the cache needs.

This is kind of a nuclear option, but it does what you want. Ill go ahead and say I havent rigorously tested this, but it seems to work so far so use at your own risk.

Work flows are xml, so we can use a macro to open the workbook and look through the xml for browse tools.

Remove the nodes associated with the browse tools and then resave.

End result

BrowseRemover.yxmc

I am sorry but it seems not work for your purpose.
There is a function "Find and Replace"

We can search for "Browse" then all the Browse Tools can be highlighed, then right click to delete.
