M&M 3rd ed. Need Help Modifying User file

I was planning on running a fantasy based superheroic game. To this effect I was planning on altering the user file to eliminate modern options like assault rifles and automobiles. I would then replace these entries with setting appropriate equipment like pick-locks, prayer mats, common swords, armours, horses and the like.

The only difficulty I have is in removing the modern entries entering each individually into the "Hidden" tab is taking largely forever. I have to click on the appropriate tab, look up an entry to determine it's unique key, click back to the "hidden" tab and enter each key before beginning again. I'm not looking forward to doing this several hundred times.

Any advice on altering the database directly, perhaps in something like Excel?
 
Unless someone already has a user file without all the default equipment, weapons, vehicles and HQ's?

Maybe? Perhaps?
 
I want to say that there's a way to export that kind of data, but the closest I can think of at the moment is to create a character with all of the equipment you want and then go down the list, right clicking and copying the ID to paste into something like Notepad to paste back in for the items you want to remove. Sorry I can't be of more help.
