Just like Ctrl+H performs a Quick Replace, Ctrl+Shift+H brings up the Replace In Files window.

Note that another option, Keep Modified Files Open After Replace All, appears in the Result Options section.

Obviously, if you check this option, all modified files will be opened in the editor. The significance of this is that you can use the undo command if you change your mind.

Happy Programming! =)
