Rob,

Create an object that matches the info from ovobjprint as precisely as
possible. You'll know you're on the right track if NV warns you that
such an object already exists and do you want to create a symbol.
Complete the process of creating the object (symbol), but don't stop
with that. My experience is that status will never be accurately
reflected.

Next, delete the object (not just the symbol) which should take it out
of your database. The next discovery pass should re add it.
