To edit a type in the repository:

1. In the Type List Resource tree, select a type to edit.
2. In the Editor pane, modify the appropriate type definitions. The choices are:

• Changing the type name
• Specifying whether the type is required, read only, or primary property.
• Changing the data type
• Changing the choice type
• Changing the default value(s)
• Designating the type as explicit

3. Click Update to apply the changes.

Note: If the type has content associated with it, you will not be able to edit that type.
