How to tell if you've purged all occurences of a part?

How can you tell if you've purged all occurences of a particular part? Jason Martin with Autodesk states that a part cannot be replaced until it has been completely purged from the drawing. Well I've done that, unless there is another one lingering around the drawing some place, and I still cannot get my modified Mvpart to come in properly.

Use quickselect to select all the instances of the part by sizename

It's on the properties palette. It looks like a funnel with a lightening
bolt, or type qselect.

Type qselect at the command line....


style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">

Using the filter command before in ACAD14 I could select an object. It would then add the properties to the filter window and you could delete the properties from the filter you did not want to use. For instance Name,color,location,linetype, etc. This one does not appear to do that. How can you preselect an object to set the filtering properties without having to type them all in?
