Saving information in a window
When you change information in a DSView Explorer window, you must click Save in order to
apply the changes. By default, a message box will appear if you click Close or try to exit the
window by clicking a link in the top bar, top navigation bar or side navigation bar without first
clicking Save.
Clicking OK in the message box will exit the current window without saving the changes. If you
wish to save the changes you have made, click Cancel in the message box and then click Save in
the window.
You may choose whether or not to be reminded to save changes made to windows before exiting
them. See Changing user options on page 19 for more information.
Using the Customize link in windows

Customization window will open.
