Greetings, as my nickname suggests I am a beginner so please have
patience with me if my question is stupid or in wrong section, I'm not
sure where it belongs.

Is there a way to replace certain expression in a body of
text/paragraph? I am making a project where I need to write analogous
on-click functions to several objects but I have to change object
names and some variables in the code for each and the code is quite
long and it is bothersome to change them one-by-one, especially since
there is A LOT of the objects.
Hope I am making sense
