have you ever used DIM UPDATE?

hey guys how do you grab all dimensions in a drawing and change the ext line color to white and the text color to yellow for every dimension within lisp??
This is because we are editing a whole heap of standard details.
Also we are scaling down from millimeters to meters.
How can i scale everything down by 0.001 and edit the dim scale overall for each dimension and leader within a drawing to be 1000 times smaller than what it is at the moment
eg if the current dimscale overall of a single dimension or leader is 25 how can i make it 0.25
I need to do this for each single dimension and leader with a drawing.
Any healp as you can see will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

No i haven't even heard of it..
Even asked about it here - no one knows..
Its probably a simple command - can you talk me through it please
Strix, im asking and quetion similar to what russell at
"Convert Dim style from scale 1000 to 1 "
if i use DIM UPDATE i cannot maintain the text and arrow style for each Dim and the size of each style in scale 1000 to 1; is that i miss out any thing?

sorry guys, I can't check the exact procedure, but you need to set the DIM STYLE parameters to those you require, then DIM UPDATE
