Hi.

Have clipart saved in userdocs which point to a network location. this
network location has been moved and now all of the clipart points to the old
address. Is there a way to export clipart images and then import them into
the new location. i realise that i can just search new location for clipart
but then would lose keyword searches and the like.

any ideas.

Windows XP running Office 2003.

Hi Mary.

I have seen this KB and didn't think it was relevant to my problem. Firstly
i have service pack 1 installed, and secondly it is not a roaming profile.
the files are still in the old location and work fine, but when i rename that
path the thumbnails still appear in the clipart gallery, but don't insert
when you select them, obviously because the file location has changed.

There are other articles, however the majority of them are for Office XP(2002).
Could be they are still useful.
