Application Designer Menu:

Edit,Find in…

On the Find in… dialog:

Find what: ";" *
Find type: Text string in PeopleCode
Project: enter a project or scan the full database.

Important: check the Save PeopleCode to File checkbox

I typically scan the full database at least once and get about a 100 MB text file out of it. Very useful to look for examples of peoplecode functions you haven't used yet. Otherwise, I typically qualify a project name to check for left behind code in large projects when doing packaging - export from 2 dbs and compare. Or to quickly get an overview of the code in a given set of subcomponents.

At PeopleSoft, someone's written a VB real time decoder that can be called to parse the code for quality auditing purposes. That's the next step above exports.

• the ";" search will miss single line PeopleCodes if they are not terminated with a semi-colon. Such is life - I don't suggest scanning on " ", too slow.
