I've used the DLD:SYS:DataWizAction form to bulk update login names. Open it up & look at it. If you've used the Data Wizard Console to make any changes, you can search & see the records.
Here is what I did: Exported the users that needed changing from CTM:People. Created a csv file. Imported the csv file into DLD:SYS:DataWizAction. Then - & this is where it gets funky - I used a program called AutoHotKey to run through the everything I'd imported into DLD:SYS:DataWizAction. The reason I used AutoHotKey is because I could make it wait for the update action to complete before moving on to the next record. A colleague recommended this & help me set it up.
