Thanks and thank u so much. Yes, as u say, even I have 100s of items in collection. So I wll try to do it at SQL level as u suggested. Can u also guide me on the columns of 'resourcepolicy' table (because I see the columns r set with numbers.).what each column/value represents?

I would personally do it using SQL (resourcepolicy table) if it was for more than say 50 items, but of course you have to do that in a testing environment and back up, back up, back up the database!
