Change

Lets you change the selected resource credentials.

For remote selections, do not change the logon account information. They rely on the logon account used to connect to the server they reside on, and will ignore the additional logon account you specify. This applies to drives, Lotus, System State, and Exchange selections (except mailboxes, which can and do use logon accounts).

Clear

Removes the selected resource credentials from the dialog box.
