Thanks for your response, Stefan! I thot for a while that everyone's moved
over to the .beta section, and I was fixin' to copy this message there...

Yes, this is exactly what I need to do, and I thought I accomplished this
within Moray - the path to where the new .udo and .inc files are has been
added - but Moray is not re-linking the UDOs already within the .mdl file
(imported and set up before the changeover) to the new .udo and .inc files
(re-generated and re-located since my PC changeover). This fact is apparent
because they are not displaying in the 3D views. I could go through and
re-import all the newly regenerated files, but that would mean that I'd have
to set up all the animation, materials, and such for each, and there's a
bunch of them.

You're saying that there's a setting in POV-Ray that I should be looking at?
How come Moray is not displaying them? Also, the generated POV file with the
"Error" lines I mentioned below was created by Moray at the time of render -
its saying it can't find the associated data files, so it must be a setting
within Moray. Any thots how to re-associate these udos?

TIA,
Kman
