Replace instance of a library by another instance of another library for all elements of a library

Hello,

I have an instance named via_M4M2 of a library named lib1. This instance has layout, shematic, symbol views. via_M4M2  is used a thousand of times in the others instances of lib1.

I created this via_M4M2 in another library lib2.

I would like to replace all via_M4M2 of lib1 present in all instances by via_M4M2 of lib2.

I hope you have a simple solution. I can do it manually but it will be very long and risky. I searched in copy wizard options but without success.

Regards

    Hello Andrew,

    Thanks for your quick and accurate answer. Your second solution is perfect. I made a allcell to replace my via in all elements of the library. I'll search next time for a solution to create the allcell with skill code.

    Regards.
