CimEdit, Text, Editable .ctx Files
About this task
Text .ctx files are slower in operation than the binary . cim files. However, there may be times when you want to do a massive character search and replace, for example changing a tr in a Point ID to an RT. You can do this easily by saving the file as a .ctx file, opening it in a text editor such as Notepad and making your changes.
You save the .ctx file the same way you save a .cim file, except you select the ( Text screens *.ctx) file format option.
