So.....I'm doing this conversion from one account structure to another account structure. Throughout about 500K lines of code, there are various hard coded literals and account formats related to their current account structure.

They are changing about 800 account numbers.

I have to search through 500K lines of code for those 800 account numbers and formats related to them to find where I must change the code.

Each search takes about 3 minutes. Long enough to make it really boring, short enough so that I can't do anything else productive while waiting for each search to complete.

Sigh.
