Thanks for the response Carl! This does work around this weird issue. I'm now wondering if anyone else has had the same problem?
Do you know what tool modified the content type? Technically there should not have been any changes made on this server as I was on leave. I would love to track down and resolve this issue. Using SharePoint manager I can see the test list I created has 2 content types associated with it - item and folder. Item has only has 2 fields (title and content type) and folder has a few more (content type, folder child count, item child count, name, title). Name is listed as required and I can't change this - or delete the folder content type. I'm doing some comparisons between dev. and production at the moment - but any suggestions would be appreciated. From: Bergman, Carl [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 12 August 2011 1:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: error editing in datasheet Maxine, For some reason I cannot reply to the list - but we encountered a similar issue a little while ago when the list content type had been modified by a 3rd party tool. If you goto a new list in datasheet view and add the 'name' column in - you should be able to add new rows to your list. The name column will change to a number after submitting the row to the server though.. (it will look something like 1._000 or thereabouts..) Whilst not a fix - check out your content types and that may give you the answer.

Both were working fine 2 weeks ago, now dev is fine, but production is dodgy. Any suggestions on where to start? From: Maxine Harwood [mailto: ] Sent: Friday, 12 August 2011 10:18 AM To: ozMOSS Subject: error editing in datasheet Hi all, Just back from 2 weeks leave to find that in my production environment, all lists now error when adding a new row via the datasheet. The message states: "columns that require data are not included in this view. If you want to edit rows that are missing data in these column, or add new rows, you must first add the required column to the view". All required fields are in the view (in fact there has been no changes to the view). The problem has only started to occur in the past 2 weeks. To test this is a server wide issue, I created a new custom list. Didn't customise this list, so the only required field is Title. I can add a row via the form, but changing the view to datasheet and inserting a row results in the error message. The issue is not apparent on my development environment which is a snapshot of the server approx. 8 weeks ago? I'm scheduling a restart of the server to see if this might resolve the bug but wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue?
