Find and Replace should allow the user to set a field to "empty"

Currently the Replace All button will not become active if you haven't entered anything into the replacement field.  There are times where you want to clear out a field.  Quicken find and replace should allow the user to change a field to with "nothing/empty".

    Yes!!!
    I would especially like to see it in the Register under the Check number column.

    I have been told that if you put in a space it will allow clearing out the field, with the exception of the category field.

    I still feel that using nothing should work, and certainly it should be fixed for the category field.
