+Select the time frame for which version changes are to be displayed, and click the \fbox{Display} button to update the listing. If resources changed within the time frame they will be listed in date order with most recently changed listed first.
+
+\item Actions
+
+If you wish to apply a version rule to all resources imported into your course,  click the \fbox{Go} button for one of the two options -- either always use the most recent published version for all resources, or fix all resources to the version currently in use in the course.
+
+\item Version choice(s) for specific resources
+
+If you wish to fix only specific resources to a particular version, but allow others to use the most recent version, select a version from the select box for each of the resources to be fixed, and click either of the \fbox{Save changes} buttons.
+
+The ``History'' column includes links to versioned resources and also links to display the differences between any version and the most recently published one.
