How to change product weight?

Hi, We use the USPS shipping calculator based on weight in the Zen Cart. We have over 5,000 items that have too much weight entered. Rather than change the weight one at a time can I change everything all at once. Thanks

Most of the product is the same weight. The product that has a different weight I will change manually, unless there is a way to change individual catagory weight (that would be a time saver). The tare is set at 0.0.

Install EasyPopulate; you can then download product data, edit in Excel and upload again.

If you do not use linked products you can also set the products_weight = XXX where master_categories_id = XX for the categories_id that you know ...
