Cannot reload my DWG file

Ok, this is weird. I am using worksets. I have a DWG unloaded in my revit and I want to reload it. I go to Manage Links, select the dwg and click reload. It does nothing. I also click on reload from, and still nothing. Anyone have any idea why?

Thanks

I was trying to avoid removing and re-linking the file because I have to refigure its location in the XYZ direction. What I usually do is I take my Civils CAD file and draw a line from their 0,0,0 point to near the drawi ng. I then import the CAD file and I set the coordinate system at the end of the line where the 0,0,0 point it. That then becomes my 0,0,0 point. The problem that I have is if I remove and re- link, the drawing never re-loads at my 0,0,0 point. re-coordinating the CAD file is a pain.

Any ideas
