I sort of see, I'm suppose to save as a .XLS file.

Sorry to be blunt, but since you ask, you're imagining solutions which are inappropriate and/or don't work, and apparently failing to properly try the suggestions that have been made.

You're right, exporting and re-importing is a hopelessly tedious and unnecessary solution. If you insist on going that route, however, the Excel export/import routines work fine. There is no XML import routine, so that's a non-starter.

I see no indication you considered either one of my alternate suggestions. I'm not sure, but it seems the Replace Folders in File paths setting must have been provided for situations exactly like yours. Rescanning the drive should also work, assuming your file scanner configuration includes regex appropriate for your file pathnames.

leogets:
Yes Rescanning did the trick.
But befor I could do that, I had to source out the registry tweek for WinXP that has to be there otherwise I can't map to an external USB connected hard drive.
Once I found this tweek I was then able to map G$ to Z:\ on my other computer.
However, I wish there could have been an easier way to do this without having everything attached as in my sister's home.  A way to simply be able to do a batch File Path change would be nice.

The tweek I needed was this:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters]
"IRPStackSize"=dword:00000031

Without it I was unable to map to an externally connected USB Drive that was connected to another computer on the network.


Thanks for everybody's help.  Much appreciated.
This is still a very good program.  Thank You,
