Hi Chriss,
I use Dreamweaver 8 and it still does a fantastic job automatically
updating references. So when you change one file name it will change
the other 499 linked files for you.
There is more than a little resistance to Dreamweaver in this NG, but
it really does the job. Mind you now that Adobe has taken over I hate
to think what version 9 will bring.
All the best,
Andrew.
