Anybody know how to do this ?

I have a file containing User Names, Passwords, and Access Permissions.
Each User gets access to a number of different routines by a use of a simple 'Y' or 'N' against each option.
Variables are all contained within Groups (Main Menu, Sales Invoicing, Sales Ledger etc.)
Trouble is that there are well over 100 options, and I do not want to set them individually.
What I would like to do is;
If a user is flagged as "Admin", then set all Access Permissions to 'Y'
Is there a simple assignment statement that will change all items in a Group Structure ?
Tried a couple of things, nothing seems to work..

You can't cheat the phone company.
