    Description:
    A staff member has set her preferred column widths in the upper pane of the cataloging "show" screen when in usm01. She then searches to usm10 and looks at records there with the cataloging "show" view.
    Then she moves back to usm01and finds that her customized column widths have been reset to the default.

    Resolution:
    Where your UserTabCol.ini looks like this (after update):

    [ListBoxColumns]
    PRINTD_LIBS=0.3000,0.7000
    SEAR_RESULT_LIST=0.5000,0.3000,0.2000
    000000000=0.0642,0.1345,0.1600,0.3479,0.0497,0.0655,0.1782,0.0,0.0

    However, UserTabCol.ini should look like this (after update):

    [ListBoxColumns]
    SEAR_RESULT_LIST=0.5000,0.3000,0.2000
    PC_SEAR_SHORT_USM01=0.0684,0.0,0.1421,0.6937,0.0958,0.0,0.0,0.0

    Note that the last line is missing in your UserTabCol.ini (e.g. PC_SEAR_SHORT_USM01).

    I recommend that you install SP1485 (or higher), released on 4-Feb-2008, to take advantage of rep_change #001328:

    "In the Search Tab, the brief list header configuration was not consistent after searching in another base.
    This has been corrected."
