Curt - try out something like this:

sed -i -e "/tabblock/s/01000/00995/g" \
         -e "/pointlm/s/01000/00996/g" \
         -e "/arealm/s/01000/00997/g" map_index.sys


If I remember my seddish correctly, that should do it.  Note this
would require GNU sed for the -i parameter (in place) - with other sed
binaries, you'd need something more like this:

cp map_index.sys mapindex.sys.bak
sed -e "/tabblock/s/01000/00995/g" \
         -e "/pointlm/s/01000/00996/g" \
         -e "/arealm/s/01000/00997/g" map_index.sys.bak > map_index.sys


Someone please try this out and see if it works like it should!
