Updating points from XY attributes

Hi,

 

I have a Shapefile with a series of XY fields that correspond to points in the Map Window.

 

I have now updated the XY attribute data for a few records and want the points to move to their new location.

 

How can this be done, simply with ArcGIS (no third party extensions)? Do I have to export the table to a DBF and re-import to a new Shapefile, or is there an easier “on-the-fly” solution.

 

I’m using ArcGIS 9.3.1

 

Thank-you,

 

Bill
