Steve,

I can't help you with the ELA/ELS code, but as long as the date
string is unique, you could export your data using the 1000101
format and then do a search/replace, using any of the following
tools that suits you best:

sed <-- http://www.ptug.org/sed/sedfaq.htm
NoteTab <-- http://www.notetab.ch .

Both can handle very large data sets.

You may want to look at the Omega-list thread on 23-aug-00
under the subject "Ascii file handling program" for more details.

Regards, Michael.
