Opening managed files
To view a managed file, open a copy of the file from a WebDAV server. The File >
Workgroup > Open command creates a local copy of the file on your hard drive.
After you have a local copy of a file, you can revert it to the version of the file on the server
(for checked out files) or update it with changes from the file on the server (for non-
checked out files). Reverting and updating permanently discard all changes you’ve made
to the file.
To open a managed file:
1
Choose File > Workgroup > Open.
2
Select a server, a directory, and the file you want to open.
3
Do one of the following:
•
Click Check Out if you want to open and check out at the same time. (See
“Checking
files out and in” on page 84
.)
•
Click Open if you want to open a local copy without checking it out.
To revert a checked out file to the version on the server:
1
Open your local copy of the file.
2
Do one of the following:
•
Choose File > Workgroup > Revert.
•
Choose Revert from the Workgroup pop-up menu
at the bottom of the application
window (Windows) or document window (Mac OS).
To update a non-checked out file from the version on the server:
1
Open your local copy of the file.
2
Do one of the following:
•
Choose File > Workgroup > Update.
•
Choose Update from the Workgroup pop-up menu
.
Checking files out and in
Checking out a file prevents other users from making changes to it on the WebDAV server.
When you’re finished making edits, check in the file to update your changes to the server
and release your lock on the managed file.
To check out a file:
Do one of the following:
•
To check out the file that you already have open, choose File > Workgroup > Check Out.
Alternately, choose Check Out from the Workgroup pop-up menu
at the bottom of
the application window (Windows) or document window (Mac OS).
•
To open and check out a file at the same time, choose File > Workgroup > Open. Then,
locate and select the file and click Check Out. (See
“Opening managed files” on
page 84
.)
To verify if a local file is available for check out:
1
Open your copy of the file.
