Updating records
The Update Path command is used to update a record or set of
records and bring the source file(s) back on-line. The Update
command can also be used to generate a new thumbnail for a
record by acquiring a different source file or re-acquiring the same
source file if it has changed since it was first acquired.
The Update Path command allows you to locate off-line source
files and bring them on-line.
To update a single record:
1. Select the record you want to update.
2. Choose Update Path from the Source File menu (
ALT+O, U).
Update Path dialog box
3. If the source file has been modified, select the Update

4. Select the source file to use for the update.
The file name that is stored with the record is shown in
the ‘File Name’ box. To display a preview of any selected
file, select the Show Preview checkbox.
