124895 2003-03-01 21:58:00 Have you tried edit, replace? wotz (335)
124896 2003-03-02 02:57:00 You use Ctrl F and put in the number to be replaced, then click on the Replace.. button. You can then fill in the 'Replace with' box then choose either to do it one at a time with 'Find Next' and 'Replace'

or alternatively...

you can choose 'Replace all' if you are very confident that there are no exceptions.
