Select Text
Select Client/System Text Add/Edit

This will then open up the text search screen , you will need to select the Text Set to be Master Set 0


Master Set 0 contains all the default text codes used in CAS, these are all updated along with new release so if any changes are made by the user in any master set 0 paragraphs, these will be overwritten when you update.

In order to avoid changes made by users from being overwritten, users should copy the text codes from Master Set to Client set and then make any changes that are required.
