Thanks for taking the time to create the bundle for me René.
I have installed it but I am not 100% sure how to use it.
I have entered the shortcut key command “^⌥⌘R” and it appears to run but I
do not understand how to target the parts that I want to replace.
Here is a screen capture of my find and replace settings:

Here is a zipped file of the file that I am trying to edit:

I don't know if it matters...but the content that I am trying to edit is
from a FileMaker clipboard. I believe that it is in XML format. The items
that I am trying to edit are references to layout elements. (More
specifically, references to FileMaker Portals.)
Thanks again for your help!
