Hey Angela - I don't think Compiler (organisation) node has any data in it, 
but when I try to change the resource-instance on this node, it tells me I 
can't as there are 'resource instances' in the node.  So, what I want to do 
is run this search on all the Monument resources:

Return resources that contain a value in the Compiler (Organisation) node.  

Once I have the resources, I can then delete any data from the  Compiler 
(organisation) node and then change the resource-instance to this node from 
Compiler (person) to Compiler (organisation).

So, all hangs on me being able to find the Monnument resources that have 
data in  the Compiler (Organisation) node.  This is what I can't seem to do 
(without clicking through each of the 6,000 resources manually...which I 
don't want to have to do.)

Any ideas?  Thanks for your help with this,

Jude.
