Editing a tag

If i edit a tag name, will that change that tag name in all the tags with that name already entered in the registers? (Just trying to clear up some naming anomalies that have crept in over the last 30 years! lol ).

    Hello @CJ1948,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community with your question.

    If you are editing an existing tag name, then yes it will change the name of that tag for all transactions the tag is currently assigned to as well.

    I hope this helps and please let us know if you have any additional questions!
    Thank you.

    You can use the "Find & Replace" option in the EDIT menu.
    Choose TAG in the options and the name of the tag you want to replace.
    You will get a list of all transactions with the wrong tag name.
    At the bottom, you have the option to modify the tag name for a selection of transactions (or all)
