Resolve conflicts between old and new data

Resolve conflicts caused by deleted rows of data

1. In the Refresh Conflicts window, in the list of shapes, select the shapes that you want to apply one of the following commands to.
2. Click one of the following:
   • Delete Shape to delete only the selected shapes
   • Delete All Listed Shapes to delete all of the shapes with missing rows
   • Keep Shape to keep only the selected shapes
   • Keep All Listed Shapes to keep all of the shapes with missing rows
   Note The Delete Shape and Keep Shape commands are unavailable (appear dimmed) if no shape is selected in the list.

Resolve conflicts caused by data that can't be uniquely identified

1. In the Refresh Conflicts window, in the list of shapes, select the shapes that you want to apply one of the following commands to.
2. Click one of the following:
   • Select Matching Row to open the Select Matching Row dialog box, where you can determine which row should be associated with the shape in question.
   • Ignore All Conflicts to keep the duplicate rows in the External Data window. Existing links to these rows are deleted.
     Note If you click Ignore All Conflicts, the rows with duplicate unique identifiers remain in the window, the original data is still stored in the Shape Data dialog box, and no links exist between the shape and the data.
