Ah, okay, that's a problem indeed.  What you wrote above suggested 
something else though -- it sounded as if you were 'composing' a new 
instrument in the Instrument Editor.  In _that_ case you have to save 
the instrument and then load it in the EXS before you can play/hear 
it.

This is weird indeed.  If your instrument files (.exs) are in the 
Sampler Instruments folder they appear in the instrument list.  And 
if they do so, the EXS should find the samples automatically.
How about trying the Project Manager: open it, and find all 
unresolved file references for all EXS instruments.  When done 
properly, all EXS instruments should no longer be coloured red in the 
PM, and the EXS should now be able to load them properly.
