And you'll need to consider repeating data elements, plus other things that
I can't think of immediately. This could be a major rabbit hole with unseen
pitfalls for the unwary.

You forgot the GS version element.  That's the one more commonly used.  And
if you are changing from pre 4010 to post 4010 and vice versa, you need to
worry about the date format, YYMMDD vs CCYYMMDD for 4010 and later.

If all the segments and elements are the same then all you need to do is use
a text editor like Notepad to change the 9th element of the ISA called
Interchange Version to 00501 and the 7th element of the UNB called
Functional Group Version to 005010. 
That should do it!

Wondering if there is a tool available to convert EDI files from one version
to another? e.g. downgrade from 6020 to 5010 or upgrade from 5010 to 6020
assuming there is no new elements injected in the transformation.

Thanks

Thomas
