Your explanation is a little confusing: Did you do a
synchronize in your own environment? What version of Axapta are you
using?

Subject: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: VAR/USR Layer changes and data
Dear all,
The reason for my question was that my customer made noticed after
they installed the var layer that the field values were deleted.
I did some testing in my own environment. I removed the USR layer
file axusr.aod and related files and replaced them by axvar.aod.
After logging back into axapta I saw the id's of the fields were
changed from 500001 to 300001.
The data in the fields was not deleted.
I conclude that using this approach replacing axusr.aod with
axvar.aod will not change the content of the fields in the table
being modified. Only thing that is changed are the id's.
regards,
Danny
