I moved a workspaace and changed the PDM_LDB_PATH to the new location and
I can now see all of my old workspaces on the new computer. However, none
of them will come up in Pro/E. I can see them when I got to the "open"
command in pro, but when I click "OK", it tells me "XXXXX can not be
retrieved" What went wrong????

    I believe the full path to the Pro/E file is stored in the object
    metadata. So, if you change the location of the .proi folder, even though
    you have changed the PDM_LDB_PATH variable, those paths to the Pro/E files
    aren't valid. I haven't verified that is the problem, though.
