Description:  Smartlist grouping is not persisted, leading to corruption of the grouping logic upon subsequent edits of the smartlist.


1.    Complete the form for a new smartlist with the logic ( Genre.contains(“rock”) OR Genre.contains(“alt”) ):

Custom (
Genre Contains "rock"
Genre Contains "alt"
Custom )

Click “OK” button to close dialog.

2.   Right-click on the new smartlist item and click the “Edit Smartlist” menu item.  Dialog appears, but the logic is now wrong, the opening paren is missing, and the closing paren has been replaced with a closing bracket. Click “OK” button to close the dialog.

3.   Right-click on the new smartlist item and select the “Edit Smartlist” menu item.  Dialog appears, but this time, the closing bracket has been omitted, and the logic has been changed to ( (Genre.Contains(“rock”) AND Genre.Contains(“alt”)).

I have screen shots of this, but am not sure how to submit them.

I'm having trouble reproducing this.

I get this smartlist:
([Genre]="rock" or [Genre]="alt")

If I re-enter the Edit Smartlist dialog, it seems to work alright.

Your post isn't too clear, but make sure you're not adding a blank line for the parenthesis.  You should have two rules, with the parenthesis on the left of the first rule and the right of the second rule.
