Working with Linked Objects
When you import data, serialize labels or insert a date/time fields, LabelMark creates linked objects. The
linked objects contain the attributes for modifying the item. As a result, you cannot manually edit linked
objects, you must modify their attributes through the original dialog box as described below.
To edit linked objects:
1. Double-click one of the linked objects
2. The system displays the appropriate multi-tab dialog box with the linked object attributes
Note: Even if you used a wizard to create the linked objects, you will not see the wizard when you
edit a linked object. You will see a multi-tab dialog box (see the advanced serialization example
below) that let's you make all the necessary changes to the objects.
3. Modify the attributes as desired and click OK to regenerate the import, serialization or date/time
fields
To delete a linked object(s):
If you select a linked object and press Delete, the system asks if you want to delete all items linked to those
in the current selection?:
• If you select No, the system deletes only the selected item
• If you select Yes, the system deletes all of the linked items
• If you select Cancel, the system deletes nothing
