Eclipse change project files location

Question

I have an Eclipse project (Flex Builder) of which the actual files have changed location on the drive. When I start Eclipse I can see the project listed but there are no actual files listed of course. Right clicking the project and selecting properties will show me the old path where the files used to be stored but I can't change it.

How can I change the file location of an Eclipse project where it will look for the files after the project has been created?

You can copy your .classpath and .project files to the root of the new project directory and then choose 'Import...' from the file menu, and select 'General/Existing Projects into Workspace.' In the resulting dialog, locate the root of the new project directory and finish.
