I posted this in the scenery section, which was probably the wrong place, anyway.....I want to move an airport AFCAD to a different location, changing the LAT/LONG moves the airport reference point but not the airport. Is it possible to move the airport?

That's covered in sec. 25 and 26 of the Afcad help file.

Use your cursor to draw a rectangle around the airport. This will select all objects within the rectangle. (you can also click Edit>Select All)

Hold down the Shift key and drag the group to a new location.

Keep in mind that this will only change the location of the objects. It will not change other properties such as altitude, heading, etc.

Thanks for your reply Dave, but when I said moving the airport to a different location, I meant a different part of the country. I don't see any reference to this.
