"When I test them with my ohm meter they
all read infinite resistance even when I reverse the leads. "

	You haven't said anything about your ohmmeter.  If it
uses a low enough voltage the diodes won't conduct, even in
the forward direction.  Try hooking them in series with the AC
line and a 40 watt light bulb and see what happens/
