Greetings,

I was updating the dimensions of some Gear that I have (HW44/HW43) and wanted
to update the dimensions for the various Sets and Original Boxes that are relevant.

Since there are 30+ sets, I was hoping it was possible to edit them in bulk rather
than individually... any suggestions?

Sorry, but they have to be done individually, either by you or by one of the
admins.

Cheers,

It's fairly easy to update a bunch of stuff to the same dimensions or weight
as the data is saved in the form if you hit the Back button on your browser.
I use this technique extensively when adding new parts to the catalog.

You should pay attention when using the Back button of your browser!

Thanks Jen, worked like a charm!

Now, I just need to figure out to get the HW44 (tub) and HW43 (lid) to reference
each other...

I believe it might be Gear that Belong Together.
