Replace the 0 individually, not in 20, 50, 120...

I'm working in a Project where I have several tables with numerical references that I must replace with text. One of these numbers I need to replace is 0, where I need the word "Texto". However, I have many other numbers where 0 appears, such as 20, 50, 120, and and don't want to replace the 0 in these numbers.
Is there a way to replace only the 0, not the 0 in the 20, 50, etc.?

One solution could be to do a find and replace in the source code.

If you look at the topic in text mode, the zeros might look something like <td>0</td>.
So, you might be able search for >0 and replace with >Texto ; i.e. find only zeros that are at the start of a tag.

In the find and replace pane, you'd also need to need to tick 'Find in source code' option.

The fact you speak Portuguese surprises me... Specially the abbreviation for "você"...

I abbreviated "você" for two reasons: First, I only have US English enabled on my keyboard right now, and second because I wanted it to not look like I just generated it from a computer. By using the abbreviation, you'd know that I hadn't just Googled the Portuguese translation. :)

I lived in São Paulo from 97-99, which is how I learned Portuguese, because it isn't taught in any school around here that I know of. :)
