Thanks Nigel. I hadn't looked at content types yet. I'll see how that goes
Cheers Craig From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Witherdin, Nigel Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 11:04 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] tasks Ahhh - I have never used Site Columns to add straight to a list (I would usually use site columns to make up the content types I wanted) - though I can't really think of any reason why adding a site column to a list wouldn't work (apart from you troubles of course). I would suggest that you try making the colunn up in the list itself, and seeing if that solves your problem. If this is a common column that you want to use in other lists in the future, you can always create a list template that includes the column, and then use that as the basis for you other future lists.

They appear when I first add the field to the task list, but disappear thereafter Cheers Craig From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Witherdin, Nigel Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 5:28 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] tasks You have to add the field to the view being used to display the list (by default this is generally 'AllItems'). Also, if you are viewing this list through a ListView webpart on a page, you have to edit the webpart's properties to point it to using the newly modified view (otherwise it uses its own copy of the view, pre-modification).

We have started using tasks to organize ourselves. I have added a categories field to our task list. It shows up in outlook when I connect to it. However, the field doesn't show up in any views on the portals, not when I try and modify a view. Any ideas?
