Expand

- The boxes "Update permanent location of attached items..." and "Update item type of attached items..." are optional, but are very useful and are recommended.

- Select the matching templates (.tem files) for Bib, Hldg, and Auth respectively
- In Work Files section, click the ellipsis box to open the Select Work File dialog
- Navigate to I:\Connexion\LocalSaveFiles\[your initials] and select your .bib file
