Can't update attached pages (Dynamic Web Templates)

I seem to be having a problem with updating pages that are attached to a
Dynamic Web Template. I want to update them all. According to common sense
(and the help file), you should be able to go to Format --> Dynamic Web
Templates --> Updated attached files while the .dwt file is open and
selected. Unfortunately, when I have the .dwt file open, all of those choices
are "grayed out", as choices I do not have. It also will not let me update a
file by selecting in the folder list and going to Update Selected File. The
ONLY way it will let me update the page is to actually OPEN the page, and
THEN select 'Update Selected Page'.

I have over a hundred pages attached and I need to update them all! That's
why I used DWTs in the first place. Please help!

1. You must have a web / site open
2. You must be working with a disk-based web (c:\..., not http://)

When under http, you have do it exactly as you have indicated.
