Chage setting of multiple doors at once.

[gangotti]

I am trying to change the color of multiple doors on an entire floor at the same time.  I use the select similar tool and select the door which selects all of the doors, and In the object info panel, it says 144 door objects in walls are selected.  I then click the settings button in the object info pallet to open the door settings box.  From here I tell it to set the panels to use material and select the material I want the doors to be (in this case a red oak).  I then click the ok button and it returns to the active drawing, but it only updates the Item that I initially Selected.  My question is, is this normal operation and if so is there an easy way to go about updating my doors all at once or am i going to have to do each door individually or delete and re-insert all of them?

So I have done done more playing and I was able to get it to change to a texture.  but once I do it I cannot go back to just using a color in the attribute window.  I am sure it is probably just an operator error, but I don't know what I am doing wrong.
