Break external reference in Shrinkwrap?

Afternoon,

I've just simplified a customer assembly by replacing several of the sub-assys with shrinkwraps of themselves, and I'm now uploading these into Windchill.

Windchill has created a number of "incomplete CAD documents" (aka ghost objects), and after some painful investigations it appears that each shrinkwrap contains a reference to the assembly that it was created from. This assembly obviously wasn't in session when I opened the top-level assembly to pull it into Windchill, and therefore doesn't exist in Windchill - hence the ghost.

Is there a way to edit each shrinkwrap .prt to break this link and leave it truly stand-alone?

Thanks!
