Hi Erwin,
Go to View > Tables > More tables. Select the Entry table and click the
Copy button to open the Table Definition dialog box.
Rename the table from "Copy of Entry" to a name of your liking.
Select the first row (ID) and click the Delete Row button to delete the
ID Row.
The Indicator Field Name row should be selected.
Click the Insert Row button and select WBS from the Field Name drop down
list. You may wish to decrease the Width. Enter a title if you wish (it
will show WBS if you don't enter the title.)
At the bottom of the dialog box, the option Lock first column should be
selected.
Select Show in menu.
Click OK to return to the More Tables dialog box. The new table should
be selected.
Click the Apply button to apply the new table to the view. The WBS
column should now be the first column in the table and should be locked.
I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
Julie
