Hi,
When you have added and saved your libraries in EESchema and PCBnew
you need to click on PROJECTS - SAVE PROJECT DESCR to save everything
you have changed in your project. Kicad also keeps a local cache of
the parts that you use.
The simple rule is save everything and you should be OK.

Being a Linux user I should have known the following!!!
The problem was that the projects and sheets I was creating were in
the c:/program files/kicad path in Vista. Since I am logged on as a
user, I was not seeing nor updating the files.
