Global update hyperlink address

A organizational change has prompted a request to re-assign a former folder
on the network to a different group. The current folder "owners" heavily use
hyperlinks within workbooks to other workbooks or documents. Is there a way
to globally update all hyperlinks to point to a new top level folder on the
network and retain all subfolder information?
ex: Old address M:\Engineering\...... will now be M:\ChemEngineering.....

I'm not sure if this will do it but I would try this first
