Question

[Pierre Martinez]

I ahve 1500 diferent machine ID's (Computers). Each one is tied to a
software subfor -so that each lists all the installed software on each
machine.

Let's say I install a piece of software in all of them - How can I apply
this additional software piece to the the list of software all at once
rather than doing one at a time.

Queries come to mind but not sure eactly how.

Any help will be appreciated.

An Append query would do the trick. You have (or should have!!) a
table of all your ID's in a table named Computers, or some such.
Create a Query based on this table; change it to an Append query;
select only the machine ID field and put the name or ID of the new
software in a vacant Field cell. Append this to your table of
installed software.
