Update changes from this stream

Select the stream that will be the source for the update. Do one of the following:

• Accept the default selection.

• Click Select. In the Select Stream dialog select one of the options. If you select Another stream do one of the following:

Start typing the name of a stream. Streams that contain any characters in the string are displayed. For example, to find ’QLARIUS:VS_BRANCHA’ type ’vs’.

Select a stream from the list. Favorite streams and recently used streams are displayed at the top.
