4. Under Filter by, start typing the Standard Name and the QuickSearch feature will display a list of possible matches, up to a maximum of 50.  This list will contract as you type more characters.
   OR, click the Search Part icon  to browse the saved standards or panel configurations.
   OR, click Select Object to select the object on the drawing.
   
   

5. Under Replace With use the options explained in Step 4 to choose the replacement standard/config.
