Quite often I change the name of a procedure or variable in my apps and do
a search/replace in the IDE to do it, but I need to type the name manually in
the dialog to do it. My suggestion (if possible?) is to have AutoComplete also
work in this dialog, so, for example, I could type the first letters of the data
to change and hit Tab to complete the name.

Hm,
never thought about that, I would like some other enhancements...
...a Hotkey (Ctrl-R) to get the same dialog with the replace option active and/or a change that the first tab key jumps to the stringgadget for the replace text
...or an option to highlight all found texts?
...or the function "Find previous"

Re: AutoComplete for Find/Replace dialog
Hi,
Please add keystrokes to the "&Replace" and "Find &Next" buttons?
Instead of having to mouse click over and over again.
Also, Shift+F3 to search in Reverse order would be much appreciated.

Duh, a search backwards alternative for [F3] would be great indeed!
