Trouble using the Force.com IDE

Hi, I'm trying to install the Force.com IDE to search the metadata for any hard coded references for the upcoming split / migration. However, I'm unable to install it. I'm not sure if it's because I need to update /install Java on my computer or not. That said, is there any other way or tool to search for hard coded references without using the IDE?

Hi Santana,

You can search using Developer console.

Thanks so much. So in searching the files, would I just search on each object and look in the Text column to see where na6.salesforce.com is referenced, or should I be looking elsewhere?

developer console will allow you to search through the Apex Class, VF Page, Component etc. it will not search through the database.

So things like email templates, w/f rules, validation rules, it won't search for using the developer console? I was able to type in na6.salesforce.com and it pulled back where it was referenced.
