Color of Migrated Parts

Some of the parts I use have been migrated from as far back as R2.
Is there an easy way to apply the latest material and color set to the older parts?
I know I can edit / add colors one at a time. I'm looking for a way to apply the entire new color set at once.

Thanks,
Jeff

I forgot to mention, I have R9.

If you use the Styles Library (you'll need to read up a little first) then you can create a central library which stores all your colours and materials which all files can then reference. Basically, all materials can be made available to all files, old and new without any effort (once the library is set up) Hope this gives you some ideas.

You could try my color and material transfer or the Copy and Set Material macros from my web site. www.kwikmcad.com -- Kent Keller Autodesk Discussion Forum Facilitator "summit" wrote in message news:13637158.1100029287658.JavaMail.jive@jiveforum1.autodesk.com... > Some of the parts I use have been migrated from as far back as R2. > Is there an easy way to apply the latest material and color set to the older parts? > I know I can edit / add colors one at a time.
