CS behaving differently

Over the past year or so I have built up a library of scripts that handle very specific jobs for me. I anticipated some problems on the upgrade to CS, but I'm finding that some of my scripts simply will not work at all.

An example: many of my newspaper jobs are modular in format and I have created ID "form" documents that simply contain a number of files that are relinked to new files according to date. A script displays a list of links in the document, creates a list of new filenames by date for those links that I choose and then relinks to the new files and updates the document. This has worked perfectly for over a year, but now I find that I get a VB error "Object does not support this property or method" on

MyLinkItem.Relink MyNewPath

where MyLinkItem was set to MyLinks.Item(n) in a for/next loop.

If not a path or filename, what property would a Relink support now?

Obviously I'm keen to get this one sorted out, but of greater concern is the fact that none of my scripts are working at first try. Am I in for a complete change of the way that ID scripting has worked up to now?

Mike
