Hi all,

We are condensing several boxes from collections into multiple-collection 
boxes. For example, Collection# 1 Box 1, Collection #2 Box 5, and Collection# 
3, Box 10 will now all be in Box A.

Is there a way to simply replace all instances of Box 1 in Collection 1's 
resource record with Box A, maintaining any child information like folder 
numbers in the Instances, without having to individually click on each archival 
object and update the instance?

There aren't enough archival objects to warrant exporting as a CSV, editing the 
file, and then importing it back, but just enough to sometimes make it a hassle 
in certain resource records. Since these new top containers are linked to 
multiple resource records, I'm also wary of it creating duplicates that way.

Essentially it would be helpful if there was basically a way in the Top 
Containers page to "replace" a box with another, though I don't see anything 
like that, and merge isn't exactly what we're looking for.

Thanks!
