Yes. <g>


Ted,

At present, my utility allows you to (1) rename roles, or to (2) assign roles to
principals by either P1/P2 or gender.

Is it the case the you have people with role=XXX and you want to change them all
to role=YYY? If so, then my utility will not help you *unless* you can use #2
above.

It would be relatively easy to add a feature that changed everyone with Tag
A/Role XXX to Tag A/Role YYY, if that is what is needed.
