dear all
in oct 2013 a big number of applications (140.700: all of them at EP application authority) instead of the correct reference to the inventor person_id TLS207 lists person id 96 whose name (see applicant) do not let us presume it is a valid entry...
In order to fix it for the great majority of the records (140.680 of them) who list only one inventor (the famous 'see applicant') I wrote this lines of code that should fix the issue in mysql.
are left out about 20 records that have also inventors other than 'see applicant' so a hand made correctin and check should be performed.
the code can be found here:

hope it helps
