graphics as links - how to update links

[yepp]

If I have all my graphics as links (using MSWord2000) and move them into
another "folder", how do I get these links updated in the document? I see a
selection to change source, but that looks like you have to do them one at a
time. Is there another way?

Hi Yepp,

If you're using Edit=>Links you can select multiple
graphics in your document and then use [Change Source]
and then cycle through that dialog for each graphic,
or you can use Alt+F9 to toggle the field codes view
and either type in the fields or Use Edit=>Replace
to change the path of the graphics

I ended up doing a search and replace. Thanks

Hi Yepp,

For anything more complicated than a simple Search/Replace
can achieve, tkae a look at:

where there's a Word document you can download with a
utility for updating various kinds of Word links.
