Resolved! Scott's way worked perfectly. Export from the application, Import into it. I was able to get a bunch of disparate changes migrated by moving discrete items from about 8 Deployable Applications that way, and so far, I see no errors as a result of this process.
Thanks to Scott and L.J., and I heartily endorse this method for others migrating changes to ITSM 7 or other deployable application settings. Rick On 9/25/07, L. J.
