New column doesn't "stick" when added to enterprise custom table

[anovak]

As MSPROJECTEXPERTS kindly suggests to keep us out of corruption
problems, I opened an existing project Read Only and began to modify
an existing custom table I had copied from the Resource Sheet (I
assume the Resource Sheet is Enterprise although it isn't named
that).

I have an "_Entry - Cost Resources" table

I have a View called "_Cost Resource Usage" that I copied from
Resource Usage

I also have a filter I copied that is used in conjunction with these.

Anyway, the original build went just fine until now.

As I began, I opened the existing project Read Only then...

1. Edited "_Entry - Cost Resource"
2. Inserted "Budget" field (Yes/No re: whether resource is a budgeted
item or not)
3. Opened the Enterprise Global
4. Switched window to the existing project (again, read only)
5. Opened the organizer and proceeded to copy "_Entry - Cost
Resource" from the right to left (can't remember exactly how they are
labeled).
6. Answered "yes" to whether or not I wished to overright the
existing one.
7. Saved Enterprise Global and checked it in (at least I think it
worked - hit the save button then close, then answered "Yes" to check
it in).
8. Closed the read only project.
9. Closed and re-opened MS Project Pro 2007
10. Opened project again
11. Clicked on "_Cost Resource Usage" and the new column still isn't
in the view.

What gives? Any suggestions? This worked beautifully before.

Thanks,

Andy --

When you have the project open and the Enterprise Global open, in the
Organizer dialog, you need to make sure that you have the project selected
in the lower left corner and the Enterprise Global selected in the lower
right corner of the dialog. From the steps you did, I don't think you had
the right objects selected. Try again and let us know what happens.
