You just mentioned above that it can be done via the search replace tab of the bulk edit dialog, but there I am stuck. How to refer to a fieldname? For example, I want to copy the contents of "comments" (very short string) to my custom field #length. If you could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

REGEX mode
source field:comments
source pattern: (.+)
destination field: <select from pulldown list>
Destination Value: \1
That said. comments is a blob type field and can get huge. Use care
