Thank you for your responces.

JOELGLAINE:  That sounds like a great idea ofr regular static props.  But some of these are hair props and props with morphs. Will I lose the morphs and such by doing that?

Dizzy:  I suspect that this happens during the save sequence since yes, the path is corrupted in the scene file. 

Miss Nancy:  As long as the two lights. (the sss is subsurface scattered in this instance, but it happens with all but a single IBL light when applied) 

Nruddock:  I will definately try that. Okay ... it improved a little, but they are still there.  Back to the drawaing board. 

Any more suggestions will be very much appreciated.
