the same type (do this via a right click on the component tree… the
master object must be above the linked object on the component tree, regardless
of what the pick list may suggest, else you’ll have BDL errors the next
time you open the project). For any keywords in the object that don’t
have user input (i.e., <font color=red><span style='color:red'>red</span></font>

object is linked. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

can’t actually edit a library object but you are normally allowed to edit

fetched from the library and most formerly <font color=navy><span

in your project INP file that bears the same name as an object in the library

anybody seen purple and/or dark blue text in the input section of eQuest
