I know this is an easy one to answer, I just can't seem to get it. I have a number of duplicate components on a schematic, and realized that the footprint is wrong. So I selected one of them, opened the properties dialog and hit the Edit Component in DB button. Made my changes and saved. How do I update/reload the components that are already placed on my board to the new DB component? Do I have to go to each one and select 'Replace Components...' ?

Michael,
The easiest way is to work with the spreadsheet view.
just select all components concerned (use the sorting function if necessary)
Once all are slected, change the footprint.
Good luck!
