[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 141266] It would be great if LO Calc could have the ability to find and replace text that is in a cell which has a lot of text. It currently does not.

--- Comment #1 from Dr. Pam Halton <bugreport13 at gmail.com> ---
Slight edit to Expected Results:

I want LO Calc to be able to go FIND the next instance of that text within that
same cell that has a lot of text in it, every time I L click FIND NEXT. 

And I want LO Calc to be able to go REPLACE THAT NEXT INSTANCE of that text
EACH time I L click REPLACE. 

I want LO Calc to NOT go to the next applicable cell until I've had a chance to
 replace all the instances in that one cell I'm in. When it finds no more
instances of that text in that cell, ONLY THEN do I want it to go to the next
applicable cell where it finds the same text.




So for example, if I have a cell with a paragraph of text in it. And I tell
Calc that I want to FIND NEXT comma, then I want LO Calc to FIND the NEXT comma
within the same cell every time I L click FIND NEXT. 

When I L click REPLACE I want it to REPLACE that comma with a semicolon.

I DON'T want it to move to the next applicable cell with a comma in it until
there are no more commas in this cell.
