the best solution would be "in sql-terminology": normalize your database. store each unique email-adress only once in your ZODB and fetch the properties with "walking up and down" your ZODB. if this is not possible: use ZopeFindAndApply. you can set this beast up to search for an specified objectProperty and take actions on the returned objects... so searching & replacing an email-adress is a python-snip! cheers, maik Michael wrote:
Hi Chris, thanks for responding. By updating I mean for example, I have numerous ZODB records that all contain email address. If the address changes, I would have to update or edit each one individually and it would be nice to have the capability to do multiple records with one action. Does this make more sense?
Thanks,
Michael

It depends on what you mean by 'update'. You can probably use a Python Script. At worst you can do it using an external method.
