Yep you'r right Carey, I started with this approach only but the business and the management.... they didn't like this approach as they feared that def file may get corrupt. So I had to think of something new which could save me from selecting those 500 ones individually.

I would actually suggest a different approach. Create a Packing list. Export the 400 filters. Delete the 400 filters. < do whatever you need to do without the filters> Import the 400 filters. No code required. Minimum effort. Repeatable. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two. Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence.
