I don't know why it might return to the previous path on your machine but you might be able to brute force an update if you are comfortable editing the xml files contained inside your docm file.



I did a search in the xml files in a Word file and found two instances of the merge source path in the word\settings.xml file. The fact that there are two instances might be why making a change and saving isn't sticking for you.

Thank you for the input. Would you tell me how I can do that and where I can find the xml file? I have been trying to load the odc file, which has the correct address, but after saving and closing the docm document, it reverts back.

Thank you
