Updating records upon custom field name changing

(1/2) > >>

buah:
As it can be seen here, or even better here I have a custom-selectlist-field "DVD Case #:"

The actual last case always contains it's number and the starting movie ID for it and in it. For instance:

DVD Case #: 3: 02613 - 03876
DVD Case #: 4: 03877 -

The last one doesn't have latest movie ID, cause it wasn't filled in yet with discs, and I couldn't predict or anticipate which ID will be the last one.
Recently, I finally filled DVD case #4 closing it with a movie with ID 5329, so the value for this case had to be "4: 03877 - 05329" then.

While waiting what will be decided for a full multiple editor feature suggestion, is there a way to manually, or however, edit this value somewhere (outside PVD's interface?) so to update all records at once?

I hope I was clear enough, but willing to clarify further.

Export a list of movies with [DVD Case #] set to "03877 -" and re-import the list after you have changed those to "4: 03877 - 05329". It might take a minute or two. ;)

Answer for dummies, please:

Experimenting values >300? ;D

Ok, I'll join Zacca later ;D

But, still..

< ???>{%value=DVD Case #:}</ ???>

rick.ca:
{%value=DVD Case #: custom="true"} (so others understand, your field name includes the ":")

If you followed nostra on twitter like you're supposed to, you'd know about the Personal Video Database Export Templates Manual. It answers this, and any other question you could possibly ask regarding templates. ;D

I suppose you have to be able to deduce "custom," in the context of a "parameter," must be a boolean value. :-\
