Simplified Reps in Assemblies

I have a large assembly and I am trying to use simplifed reps. I can make the simplified reps from my master rep. I am now trying trying to replace one of my sub assemblies, with a simplified rep of the sub assembly and cannot find out how to do this. Does anyone know how to REPLACE a component in an assmbly with a simplified rep of a component, without having to assemble it again by using the simplified rep to begin with? I have tried in both WF2.0 and WF4.0 and cannot find how to do this through the REPLACE option.

Go under the View Manager, select the Master Rep or the Rep you are trying to change, and select the Properties. This will list the components of the representation and the status. Select the assembly you want to change the representation of and select the Activate a simplified rep from the selected component button to change the rep.

Kevin, Thanks. I found out how to do this. I should have looked a little more before I posed the question. The HELP worked good in Pro/E for this one.
