Hello Tim,
'Description' is a Windchill field in the off-the-shelf product. You can see it in te default table views. However, it is not listed in the "Supported PTC Server System Attributes" table on Page 78 of the PTC Arbortext Content Management Guide. My impression is that the Arbortext/Windchill interface (i.e., the Arbortext Content Manager) is very limited. I now suspect that what I' trying to do, if it is even possible, would have to be done outside of the tools provided by ACM such as the burst configuration file. But I'm still hopeful.
Mike
