Hi Phil,
I have done this successfully before by using the Edit > Find & Replace > Find and Replace in Files tool.

Enable the Find in Source Code option.

Then enter the tag for the condition in the Find field, for example, where you see something like.

Code: Select all

 MadCap:conditions="Primary.commands-tag"
just search for your equivalent of "Primary.commands-tag"

It will find all cases of that condition.
Hope that helps.
Regards,

You can use the Find and replace in files panel, with the Find in source code option.

The conditional text will be in this sort of format: MadCap:conditions="ConditionFile.ConditionName"

So you can search for say MadCap:conditions to find any condition, or say ConditionFile.ConditionName to find a particular condition.
