Thanks for trying Dan. My 6.5.5 client does this every time with personal views. I have tried it on both template and database files and got the same behavior. I have also tried it on both server and local copies and again, it always does the same thing. The view property does not contain the proper view. It picks one at random when the view is created and then sticks with it. It I delete the workspace icon and then build another one - it will pick a different back-end view. Very strange.
