Can you search for text within input tools?

We have about 20 queries broken into 20 different input tools. I'm looking for where a particular table is referenced. Can I search for this string across the 20 input tools?

There might be an easier way, but you should be able to look at the XML behind the workflow. Copy/paste it into notepad/Word/whatever then search. The SQL should be retained in the XML. You should be able to see what tool the SQL is contained in.

 

Click somewhere on the canvas (not on a specific tool) then click XML View on the left. Copy/Paste then search.

 

Hope this helps.

You can also press Ctrl+F to bring up the Find and Replace Screen. From there you can search for a specific table under the "Configuration" search option.
