Editing a data set alias

When you open a data set or its alias for editing, if another alias or the referenced data set is already open, a message window opens indicating that the data set or alias cannot be opened for editing.

If a data set alias has been added to a project and the project is taken offline, the alias and the referenced data set can be edited independently. When you take the project back online, you will need to reconcile any differences between the alias in your project and the referenced data set on the remote system.

Note: Browsing a data set alias while the referenced data set is being edited is allowed.
