Eagle 5.11
Working on a new version of an old board. Got about 200 "errors" that were
reviewed and approved. Now I want to go back and review everything from
scratch. What is the best way to do this?
If I pull up the DRC errors, I can see the approved ones and disapprove them
individually. Is there a way to do this in bulk?

Interesting question ... I don't know of a direct way.
Workaround: GROUP all, and then move the complete design by some
amount. (Maybe you move it back later.) Since the approval marks are
related to the object coordinates, the next DRC will detect all
errors again.

I investigated Tilmann's suggestion and found it only works if you don't
return the design to the original position. Even saving the moved design and
reopening the board, the approved errors are still within the design file so
if you then position the board back to its original position, the approved
list reappears.Still qualifies as a work around though

You need to run DRC after the first move - I think that will remove all
approvals of the old positions.
After that, you can move back and then run DRC again.

Doesn't seem to. I thought that it would work that way as well. The approved
list is somewhat protected and unless you specifically unapprove items they
remain in the design file.
DRC
'Approve the error'
Group all
Move(>0 0)(1 1)
DRC....'Note the return of your original error'
Move(>1 1)(0 0 )
DRC
the approved error has reappeared
