I was thinking of doing that Axton but if it doesn't work then the repercussions are that I have start from square one since all the workflow would be corrupt right? Has anyone actually tried this? If so that would raise my confidence and I guess I could try to purge the view form and reimport it via an altered def file... Im waiting for Remedy BMC to get back to me on this to see if they can provide any advice on this.

Add the column back to the view/table, then delete the field from the view form. Alternatively, you can export your workflow against this form, delete the form, recreate it with your modified def, then reimport the workflow.
