We have taken care of the BOM's and routings and we have new MO's and
PO's with the new numbers.

George,
    Unless I missed something.. You have a bigger job than what you
described... What about Pstruc, Routng, Imhist, Momast, Modata, Pomast,
poitem, pocomt, the list goes on..
You could do it with a pgm.. and a xref file (Old item --- New item)
Good Luck
