Click the Data | Reload | Data command or right-click in a table and choose Reload Data to reload data from the original data source. When the data are reloaded, any previous changes made to the original data in the data table are overwritten.
If you import data and plan to make changes to the data within Strater do not use Data | Reload | Data. Undo is not available for this command.
If you do not want a data table to update ever again with the Reload Data or Reload All commands, you can unlink the data from the original source with the Table | Table | Browser command.
When reloading data, only the data that was originally imported into the data table is reloaded. Any new data added to the data file will not be loaded into the data table.
When a data table cannot be found, the Reload Data dialog appears. The header bar in the dialog displays the original external source name. Select the new appropriate data file and click Open to update the data. If a table is not linked to an external file, the Data | Reload | Data command will not be available. Use the Table | Table | Browser command to link the data to the new external data file.
