Question on synonyms definition change after export and import

Clearance 6`- 8``Jun 18 2009 — edited Jun 18 2009
I have a small question. For example if I am exporting one user, say ABCUAT, which has couple of synonyms pointing to some objects on XYZUAT. I import it as ABCQA on a different database. what happens to the synonym? will it still try to point XYZUAT (I am almost sure it is yes)? But then if I want to point it to XYZQA, what is the easy way of doing it? I mean do we need to do it manually in the restored database by altering their DDL or is there any process while export and import or any other automatic mechanism where we can do this? Please provide some suggestions and mechanisms you use for this exercise. Thanks.
