Heh - I had this exact same problem last year, and someone on the list
kindly provided the answer. Take a look at the module properties of
the missing modules, and check the Attributes are set to
"Normal+Insert". You will probably want to go through and correct your
library rather than just editing the placed modules; you can then use
the "Change modules" button (Right click on the a module on the board,
...Edit) to update your board from the library.
Regards,
Robert.
