>If you specify columns in the RV select statement, everything works fine if you add a field. Only Select * failed, requiring that the view be opened and saved to rebuild the field details (assuming we are talking about SQL Server, that is all it takes). This was coonsidered a serious disadvantage but remains a great deal easier that the process you advocate routinely to use dotNET. But whatever.
