## Description

SwitchTo switches to a new stream to hold the resources in. AStream will be the new stream after the call to SwitchTo.

If Pack is true, then all the known resources will be copied from the current stream to the new stream (AStream). If Pack is False, then only the current resource is copied.

The return value is the value of the original stream: Stream.

The Modified flag is set as a consequence of this call.
