In summary, you want to...
1. Read an entire file into one string.
2. Using a regular expression, get the current value of "Field ID".
3. Loop from 2 to 1000...
1. Increment "Field ID" by 20.
2. Substitute the new "Field ID" for the old one, using regular
expressions.
3. Substitute the counter (Lxxxx) in the <string ID="Name"> field.
4. Write the entire block out to a new file.
Is that accurate?
