ECAD-MCAD Replace board

I have a PCB assembly in Pro-E, this was created with emn-emp files. The PCB guys have now re-spun the board so I want to replace this in the Pro-E assembly. When I drag the emp file into the pro-e assembly I am given an append option, but when I do this the board is not replaced with the new version. Can someone give me some guidance on this, I feel I am doing somthing wong here.
