Hello. I am currently working on finishing a project started and nearly finished by a co-worker. They completed their work on OrCAD 10.2, and I was able to translate and convert the .max to .brd, and open the schematic files.

The issue is that in Capture, when I open the Property Editor tab for any component, the original path to the library is greyed out on 'Source Library' and I cannot change it. It is from the previous computers' path. I have the libraries added to the Design Resources, but nothing I have tried so far works to change the Source Library for any component/part.

Do I have to delete and re-add each component to properly associate it? Are there any other tips or thoughts?

FYI: I'm very much an OrCAD noob, I've only used it for a few months and produced a couple designs.

Thanks in advance.

I've tried going Tools>Utilities>Replace Path in Design Cache but that doesn't seem to work.

So far I've found that I can right click on the part in the design cache, choose 'Replace Cache' and that is the fix.
