Hi Ray,
Sorry, I was away for a couple of days.  Yes, you can do a bulk move of folder 
contents with sql:

1) Find the folder primary keys for the source and destination folders with the 
user interface.  For example, when the url says folder=123, then 123 is the 
folder_pk.  For this example, let's say your source folder key is 10 and your 
destination folder key is 20.

2) Move ALL the uploads the source folder to the destination folder:

    update foldercontents set parent_fk=20 where parent_fk=10 and 
foldercontents_mode=2;
