OrCAD Capture "Update Cache" not working?

I'm working on a design in OrCAD Capture 16.5.  When making a netlist, I got errors because one of the part instances used an invalid footprint name (had a space in it).

I went into the part library and fixed the footprint naming.  All I need to do now is update the instance in my design to reflect the updated source part in my library.

I found the part in my Design Cache and have tried "Update Cache" on the part (which succeeded without errors).  The footprint field didn't get updated, however, on my part instance.  I even tried "Replace Cache" without any success in updating my part instance...

 

Am I missing something here?  How can I apply the updated cache to actual instances of parts in my design??

 

I can place a new part (from the source library or from the design cache) and it shows the correct footprint.  I just can't get it to apply to existing part instances.
