Typically, there should be no reason to edit a baseline. The purpose of the baseline is to provide static information related to a specific point in time. Ensure that you are not compromising the integrity of the baseline by adding and removing objects. If you want a collection of objects similar to a baseline that is more open for modification, consider using a managed collection. For more information, see Managed Collections.
