Then perform a Find Uses in a Data table (In this case searching for ‘Event Name’ in the Event table)

The “Searching for usage of:” does not change from the Action search to the Data search

**How to replicate**

- Perform Find Uses in Action Editor followed by Find Uses in Data Editor.

Did you know you could search for Actions and Columns in the Find Uses ‘drop down’.

Not sure if this is a feature or a bug but after you do a Find Uses further ‘Find Uses’ can be initiated directly from the “Search for usage of:” drop down which includes all tables/columns AND at the bottom of the drop-down for the table it includes the list of actions associated with that table. Unfortunately it doesn’t take you to the Action editor after selecting an action so I think this is a bug.
