[LOGic] Modification of one field across entire log (Paul)

[Paul]

If I'm using it correctly, the filter just showed me all the records that had the wrong frequency entered. But I would still have to go in and manually change each record by hand. Since I had well over a thousand incorrect entires, I wanted to use an automated method that would both find each record and correct the data at the same time. The Tools, Database Commands procedure that was suggested here worked fine, was quite easy and ran in less than a second.
 
Thanks for the idea.

Why not use the FILTER command on the full log display? TOM (KE1R)

Just realized I made an error some time ago in the entry of a common net
frequency in one of my MARS logs. We have fixed frequencies for various
nets, I originally entered the wrong freq for a net and ended up propogating
it thru many entries. For example, say the net freq is 8.012.500 and I
entered the frequency as 8.001.250?. What I want to do is search?thru my
entire log, locate every entry that has a frequency of 8.001.250 and correct
it to 8.012.500. Are there any built-in procedures/maintenance tools to
perform that operation?
