mass update of system variable

[Lin Sims]

MIF snippet.

1. Open a blank document and edit the variables you want to update.
2. Save as a MIF file.
3. Open the MIF file in a TEXT editor.
4. Delete everything but the code for the variables you want to update.
5. Save and close the file.
6. Open the files you want to update and import variables from the MIF
snippet.

Let me know if you have questions. :)
