Missing primitives after part update.

Hello,

   This is my first post, so please bear with me if I screw up. I have
downloaded the Ldraw part updates, and installed them according to the
instructions posted at the update site. My problem is that, every time I opened
a parts folder in MLCAD, the program informes me that it cannot find some
primitives. Many of the new parts, and even some of the old parts are missing
sides and studs. I don't know what I did wrong; I'm fairly sure that I followed
the installation instructions correctly. What am I missing? Hope someone can
help!
   Thanks,
     Michael

(...) Is there a "scan parts" command somewhere in the mlcad file menu? Maybe that'll fix it. Otherwise, you might get a better answer for this in the mlcad newsgroup, so I'm sending you there. (17 years ago, 14-Dec-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
