Thanks. I didn't know about opening up the project in the class browse...did it instead by individually opening each of the effected sources along with the source library.

It also did not occur to me that I could drag the entire library onto the empty target and have the entire contents copied. Usually, in windowish, when you drop an icon onto another one it means put the first inside the second rather than overwrite the first with the second.

The other inconvenience is that I do not want to destroy the original copy of the library...but doing a copy instead of a move does not cause the other referencing objects to switch their references. Only way I could figure around this was to copy the library, move it (or rename it), then move it back when done.

In case you were wondering, the reason for all of this is that I use a poor man's source control....every time I release a build, I make a complete copy of all of the sources for archival purposes...but this doesn't make sense unless you can rebuild directly from what you saved. Needless to say, all of the paths VFP loves to store in ??x files makes for sticky resolution problems if future projects sources reside in different folders.
