Hi,

I would consider this a dangerous way to do it.  I would prefer to see:
Copy the access-list into an edit (notepad).
Change the access-list number.
Delete or change what is required.
Copy the access-list back into the router.
Check the entry.
Save the config.
THEN
Set a reload time for the router (2 Mins)
Configure the interface to fire up the new access-list.
If you still have access to the router kill the reload request.
Test for all conditions.
On success SAVE THE CONFIG.
Delete second ot third backup access-list keeping the one you have just
changed for roll back or historical purposes.

This way should you have a flaw in your access-list you can roll back.  By
not saving the config until after the testing in a worse case scenario you
only need to reboot the router to get it back into the previous working
mode.  When changing access-lists across States or in say from Australia to
the US it becomes a bit of a job to fix an error or turn on a router.

Just a thought
