Thanks Richard - when I used the browse feature to locate the picture I wanted I wasn't asked if I wanted to change all in the file, but I did notice that ALL of the photos in my file called C:/My Documents/My Pictures/Graphics/GOOD seemed to attach themselves correctly after I re-linked just one of them. But I would still have to go through my whole family file to find each instance of a photograph that is located in anything other than the GOOD file. I hope that Sheri Lynn Lemon's response might provide a quick solution using Find and Replace.
