<LI><FONT size=2>Right-click on the item or file you wish to change, then choose <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">Edit</SPAN> from the pop-up menu. (You can also click the little square pencil-point <IMG src="https://supportcenteronline.com/dmfiles/632/658/webCafé%20Library/webCafe%20Guide%20Images/Files%20and%20Folders/Other%20File%20and%20folder%20Issues/editicon.gif"> icon next to the file. If the pencil-point is not shown, click the <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">commands</SPAN> button.)<BR><BR></FONT>
<LI><FONT size=2>If you have not already saved changes to a copy of the file on your own computer, follow one of these steps depending on whether you use the eRoom plug-in software: <BR><BR></FONT>
<UL>
<LI class=square><FONT size=2>If the plug-in is </FONT><A href="https://supportcenteronline.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=658&task=knowledge&questionID=188" target=_support><FONT size=2>active</FONT></A><FONT size=2>, make your changes and then close the document (no need to use <EM>File/Save... </EM>or <EM>Save As...</EM>). <BR></FONT>
<LI class=square><FONT size=2>If the plug-in is inactive, or if you are in Wharton's computing labs, follow the instructions shown on the <STRONG>Edit File</STRONG> screen carefully. "Edit it" will be selected, so press <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">OK</SPAN>, open the file from the provided link, and (VERY IMPORTANT!) leave the browser window open while you are editing. After saving your changed file, click the <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">Add</SPAN> button (not <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">OK</SPAN>) to upload the changed file.<BR><BR></FONT></LI></UL>
<LI><FONT size=2>If you have already saved a new version of the file on your computer, you can update the file in <STRONG>web</STRONG><EM>Café</EM> as follows: <BR><BR></FONT>
<UL>
<LI class=square><FONT size=2>If the plug-in is active, drag the changed file from your computer and drop it directly onto the icon of the "old" file in <STRONG>web</STRONG><EM>Café</EM>. You'll be prompted to confirm the replacement of the file in <STRONG>web</STRONG><EM>Café</EM>. <BR></FONT>
<LI class=square><FONT size=2>With either the plug-in inactive or active, you can replace the file in <STRONG>web</STRONG><EM>Café </EM>with the newly edited copy you just saved. From the <EM>Edit File </EM>screen (do Step 1 above if you're not already there), choose the third choice: "Replace it with a new version you've already created" (or, when version tracking is in use, "Add a new version you've already created").<BR><BR>Next, a <EM>Replace File</EM> or <EM>Add File</EM> screen will appear; click its <STRONG>Browse...</STRONG> button to bring up a pop-up file chooser. In that pop-up window, select the edited file that you saved in a folder on your computer, then click the <STRONG>Open</STRONG> button. This will dismiss that pop-up and show the directory and file name you just selected appears next to the Browse<STRONG>... </STRONG>button:<BR><BR><IMG src="https://supportcenteronline.com/dmfiles/632/658/webCafé%20Library/webCafe%20Guide%20Images/Files%20and%20Folders/Other%20File%20and%20folder%20Issues/Addtracking.gif" border=1><BR><BR>At this point you can press the <SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #cccccc">OK</SPAN> button near the top of the <EM>Replace File</EM> or <EM>Add File</EM> screen, and your changed file will be saved to <STRONG>web</STRONG><EM>Café</EM>.</FONT></LI></UL></LI></OL></p><h3>Alternate Questions/Keywords</h3><p></p><br><br><br><br><a target='_new' href='http://www.parature.com' style='font-family:Verdana;font-size:10px;color:999999;'>Help Desk and Customer Support Software by Parature</a>]]>
