Have you tried using DesignCenter for this? (Don't know if it'll work any
better, but maybe worth a shot.)
Also, just a suggestion, but perhaps re-think your 'let's use the std detail
from the network library idea' - that sounds like the path to project
perdition to me.
Instead, maybe have a standard folder layout for your projects, one of them
being "Details".
Then, COPY the std details you need for the project du'jour FROM the Network
Library TO that Details folder.
Then, just use relative paths for your xrefs, pointing to,
..\Details\DTL_X.dwg, say.
Much more standardized system, IMO, AND much less prone to having some
nit-wit hose 50 projects in one fell swoop by modifiying a "Standard" detail
that should've been left alone.
Best regards,
