Also, anything saved recently is showing up as "\\NEWSERVER\tempates", so the macro is working.

When I run the macro now, it cycles through the files, but doesn't seem to change anything when I check the files.
These two statements seem mutually exclusive; either the macro changes something or it doesn't. As for document referencing a template in "c:\templates", those would only change if you used "c:\templates" as the old path - the macro only changes the one path you give it, not any others. In any event, since those files aren't referencing templates on a network share, I wouldn't expect to see any lag when opening them.
