New v13 fields that I already had but as different data type
« on: January 18, 2009, 10:18:22 pm »

I'm glad I didn't just upgrade rather than to a test with a few select files, because I see that v13 includes a Style field (string) which I already had as a delimited list. I also have a Period field, which is also delimited, but with a set number of values.

So I gather that after spending lots of time creating these fields and getting them just so, but more important, naming them what I want them to be named, I now have to re-create them with different names?

Please let us modify new fields. This is one rare occasion where I wish MC didn't include a new feature. It's going to be a real pain to have to come up with different names for Style and Period, let alone having to go through all of my smartlists and view schemes and change the fields in those. What a mess.
