Bonjour Glenn, This is my first posting to this list. The following will erase the credit line existing in those records and replace it with you new Credit line. When I have to do things like this, I do the work at the SQL level. ATTENTION : BEWARE : You can damage and loose data if you are not familiar with SQL. Proceed with EXTREME care... A) Create an object package with a name and put your 800 objects in it. B) at an sql prompt, find the ObjectPackageID of your object package with the following: select * from dbo.ObjectPackages where Name like 'name that you gave before' The first column is the ObjectPackageID. Note that number. Then, do the following: update objects set CreditLine = 'YOUR CREDIT LINE TEXT' where objectid in (select objectid from dbo.ObjPkgList where ObjectPackageID = "The objectpackageid that you find in the preceding request") /* Replace "The objectpackageid that you find in the preceding request" with the number without " " */ Hope this help Luc Bissonnette Bibliothécaire des systèmes/Systems Librarians Gestionnaire des systèmes des collections Centre Canadien d'Architecture/Canadian Center for Architecture Montréal, Québec H3H 2S6 Téléphone: 514-939-7001 #2616 Télécopieur: 514-939-7020 [log in to unmask] -----Message d'origine----- De : The Museum System (TMS) Users [mailto:[log in to unmask]]De la part de Glenn Fye \\ eoj Envoyé : 4 décembre 2006 13:52 À : [log in to unmask] Objet : Re: Adding or Editing Multiple Entries Hi Everyone, Has anyone had success with doing gang entries to data fields.
