Trick/Quick question: Where all is the node;piece stored in the data dictionary?

I ask because I think it is stored in two places, and I can only find
one of them.

I had added a field (#22700--my number space) to file 2005.2 using the
screenman form method (mistake!).  Turns out that the screenman way
doesn't allow one to specify the node to store data on.

I then had the option of deleting the field and entering everything
back in again.  I had written lengthy descriptions so wanted to avoid
that if possible.

I had not entered any actual data into the field, and had created no
cross-references, so I thought that I could change its DD definition
OK (you know about assumptions...).

I found that $p(^DD(2005.2,22700,0),"^",4) = "7;1"
I didn't want my data stored in note 7, so changed this to "22700;1"

Now, when I use VPE data dictionary browser, it looks fine (shows
22700;1).  And when I go to enter data in with Fileman, it is
fine--the file goes in, and when I come back to edit it again it is
still there..
But when I do I do an INQUIRE of the data I added, it doesn't show.
And when I do the LIST FILE ATTRIBUTES, and in GLOBAL MAP listing
format, it still shows the old "7;1"

So apparently the node;piece is stored in more than one location.
Any idea where the other location is?

Thanks
Kevin
