Updating Multiple Inset Pathways

Hi,

I'm currently trying up update multiple text insets in multiple documents. The pathway is incorrect, and when select an inset and click update it also says that the file type has changed since the inset was last imported. Is there any way for me to show all documents where the new insets folder can be found, as I'm currently updating each inset's pathway manually. I'm using 2015, but am saving into 12.

Thanks!

    Clearing the ground … with a .book open, you can search for Any text inset or Unresolved text inset; you can also set up a List of references (LOR) file for a .book that shows all insets. That will at least show you the scale of the problem and help you find all the references that need to be updated :-}

    You could always try .mif and a text editor, if you're feeling brave and have a full set of back-up files. I don't know whether there's anything inside FM that will help.
