The Edit Sewer Structure command allows you to modify the parameters of a sewer network. However, it can be tedious when the network is large and when you need to change just one parameter of most of the sewer structures or pipe lines. For example, you'll have to go through all pipe lines if you want to change pipe manning's n to 0.014 for all pipes whose manning's n is currently 0.013. Here, the Find and Replace Data Values command would help you to find and replace the pipe manning's n values for all pipes at once.
From the Network > Sewer Network Utilities menu in the Hydrology Module, select Find and Replace Data Values to open the dialog. The sewer file name is displayed on the top of the dialog. In the Parameters list, choose what parameter you want to replace. In the Find what Box, type the value that you want to change, and in the Replace with box type the new value. Click on Replace button to find all pipes with manning's n values of 0.013 and replace their manning's n with 0.014. A message will be displayed on the dialog showing how many values have been replaced. Click on OK button to commit the changes or Cancel button to abandon the changes.
