In this case, I think it better to simply leave the schematic alone and,
instead, create a PCB library with footprint names matching those coming in
from OrCAD. If those

Given what you need to do, you might try doing Edit | Export to spread, and
edit in the spreadsheet view; this could be quicker, especially for those
parts where there are only a few of each.

When you are changing footprints -- or anything else -- you must select in
it to its fullest,
this is still seems way too much work for a large schematic.

I think Mr Wolfe has been quite clear here; I assume he will correct me if

a sch component and
it's footprint. It doesn't always work. I found that deleteing the old
footprint is more reliable when trying to get PCB to replace it with the new
assignment.

OK Here is the scenario, I ran through this today.
Hopefully I have described it clearly enough.
I am running 99SE, SP6 on WIN98 Second Ed.
Using the Database structure.
Create 3 footprints called KP1, KP2, & KP3 that could be used for this
part in a library,
