I did get the default to show up by changing the container name. But I guess I would still like to know which tables I could go to in order to delete the rows.

I suppose for a future version it may be nice to set the Reflection back to Default for a give page. On 10/16/07, Matt Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey Geoff, thanks for the response.
