Is there anyway to make a status change to multiple WOs?  
 
If not, I'd like to request a method of making status changes to multiple work orders with filtering on date, WO#,  and item number.  I'd like a prompt for previous status =?  new status =?.  That way we could change all the work orders for a given item that had been status "F" to "S" in one step and back to "F" again in a second run to pick up a revision update which changes the bill of material or routing information

I have the search and replace utility and love it (although I don't use it effectively).
Perhaps I should clarify:
   
It's not simply changing the status field in the WO table from one value to another that I need, it is the action of erasing the WO bom (and routing) and recreating by going from status F (or R) to S and back to F (or R) that I would like to do en masse.
 
I don't think changing the status using NZFNR would do that, would it?

You are right, Jim, NZFNR will change the status but not strip and replace the Routing and BOM.  You could use it to also delete records from WOBOM and WOROUT if all the needed filters existed in those files to strip the old BOM and Routing but you would still need to reset the status individually.  It would need to be a special program.
