Editing a Template
The Template Editor provides the
  following two modes of displaying and editing the questions and values in a
template. 
See Question Mode for
    detailed information about using the features of this editing mode.
  - Question Mode - Enables editing of all template questions. 
  - Quick Set Mode - Enables rapid editing of a limited set of template  questions. 
 
 Quick Set Mode filters out all test suite specific questions and displays
    a limited set of general questions whose values are often changed from test
    run to test run. In this editing mode, the Template Editor creates logical
    groupings of the values and displays them in  tab form
    for easy user navigation and access.

  - Use Question Mode to change the values of
    questions in the template. 
- Click Done to save the changes and close the Template
  Editor.
You can use the View menu at any time to change from one 
  mode to the next. Because there is only one template file loaded in the Template
  Editor at a time, when you change modes during an editing session,
  any changes  made in one mode are automatically reflected
  in the other.
If a configuration is attached to the edited template, the harness opens a Template updated dialog box that enables you to review the changes and to accept, reject, or postpone having the changes propagated to the attached configuration. See Resolving Configuration-Template Conflicts for a description of the dialog box and the choices available to the user.
