After you have attached a MSDS, you might find that you periodically need to make changes to it. For example, the website from which you obtained it has changed. Access the MSDS record and update the website address.
Maintain MSDS records directly from the product record to which the MSDS is attached.

Display the product record to which the MSDS needing updated is attached.
From the Notes menu, select Hazard / MSDS to display the Product MSDS Information window.
In the Sheet ID field, enter the MSDS record to edit.
From the File menu, select MSDS Maintenance to display the MSDS Maintenance window.
