Changing search paths on the fly?

I use Pro/E 2001 and Win2K. Is there any way to change or temporarily block search paths without exiting and restarting Pro/E? Thanks!

You can add search paths but you can not delete or modify existing search paths.
 
Have you tried editing your config options from Pro/E and commenting out the search paths you don't want and then reload the config.pro file.

I assume you've tried this but the paths are still in memory, but I thought I'd ask.

I can add new search paths, but I haven't been able to delete or modify existing ones without exiting Pro/E (like dgallup says). Even if you reload a modified config.pro file, it still keeps all the previously specified search paths in memory.
