SYMPTOMS
If you create a collection that is based on an imported query, and then you modify the original query, the collection is not updated as expected.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because, when you create a query-based collection, the queries are imported from existing queries. After the queries are imported, they are treated as separate from the source queries.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, re-add the query (that the query-based collection is created from) to the collection. To do so, follow these steps:
 * 1) Right-click the collection that is based on the changed query, and then click Properties.
 * 2) Click the Membership Rules tab, and then double-click the rule that is created from the changed query. This opens the Query Rule Properties dialog box.
 * 3) Click Import Query Statement, and then click the changed query to re-add it.
 * 4) Click OK three times to close all dialog boxes.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
