Actually, all you need to do is exit out of your current instance of dom, and restart it. At least that's all I do, and it works :9

I have the note pad open, and I save the mod, then I reload dominions. My experience has been that it some things are set at start, some things are set at making a new turn (like hitpoints) and some things are set when the nation is loaded. There's a noticeable pause when the game loads with a slightly different mod file and it's reading it in again.
