Well, I had a bunch of those, too. I just did it with a combination of Word (to get each command on one line), appended that into a temp table, and used getwordnum() on the " to parse the values. Turns out I had ~350 REPLACE commands, and about 50 new ones to add from the latest batch of data. Thanks for stimulating my brain to get it done....
