Problems with bad paths for linked MXMs

Hi all,

I am having a problem with linked MXMs. My scene contains a bunch of linked MXMs. When I started my maching this morning I forgot to turn on our file server, so all the linked MXMs now show as bad (red box).

I have since started our file server, re-opened my rhino model (restarted Rhino), but the MXM's won't change back to "green"... Is there a way to force these MXMs to recheck their paths without re-assigning materials one by one?

T.

If you view the bad paths report for one of these materials by clicking the red 'Yes' link, what does the MXM path it's referencing look like? Should it exist? If so, then it would appear to be some Windows network caching thing -- the only thing that should make a link show as missing is Windows saying that it is.
