This module is currently considered alpha and should be used by brave souls. Please back up your database prior to using this module and report your experience.
I have only done minimal testing, but it has worked as expected when I needed it.

This module allows you to find/replace node content. Currently it works with both standard and cck nodes.
Features:

  • Case sensitive
  • Includes undo redo functionality
  • Replacements occur across revisions
  • Can replace title,body,teaser and most cck fields
  • Can be used to swap out views in cck nodes with embeded views
  • Replacement history is stored in a separate table which stores the hid,nid,vid,search_table,search_field,search_string,replace_string,old_value and new_value.
    This allows the undo/redo to be universal for all node types so it is easy to add support for more node types.
    This also allows the undo redo functionality to only affect items that were replaced originally.

    For instance take the string Cat cat, replacing Cat with cat would yield the string cat cat.
    Undoing this operation will only effect items that were changed and sets them back to the original value of Cat cat.
