Tool Pallettes - Moved from 2008 to 2012- Pallette can't find Block

Collegue of mine moved his tool palettes from a directory called ACAD2008 to ACAD2012. Tool palettes can't find the associated blocks becouse the support path still points to the ACAD200 Directory.

 

Is there a way to "globally" change the associated path? There are too many blocks to think about changing each one manually.

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

Thanks

Did he just move the ATC file or Export the Palettes first and then Import into the new seat?

He moved them, the whole directory.

Put it back would be the simplest and then add the Path to the Support Files Search Path if needed.

Hopefully someone who has one this will come along as well.
