Have lost some of my columns that should be displayed in the grid view. Those "lost" columns still exist when I open the window to create a new entry, that is fill out the fields (think editors/columns). In the grid view I had too many columns showing so I draged a few off the grid. Now can't recover these columns for grid view. Tried various right clicks, restarting the application, re-booting the machine.
When I'm in data entry mode all the fields (i.e., columns/editors) show including past entires. It's only in grid view that I can't see all the columns. And in analysis view when I bind data, all the columns show including updated ones. So the database has the information I just can't seem to retrieve it for grid view. Ideas appreciated.

Thanks,
John Burns

Hi John,


You can drag them back by right clicking any column and selecting column chooser. There should be a list of columns. If the column is not in that list, you can click add on the column chooser and select the column you want to add back. It should then appear in the column chooser where you will drag the column back to the grid columns.
