I have a list with versioning that has a comments field....
There are a couple of fields we don't want shown when the dispform.aspx (or editform.aspx) is shown (to display or edit the data), however, that popup form/page, when edited, has some sort of dataview/ListForm webpart with all the individual fields/labels, etc., generated automatically 'behind the curtain', so to speak.
So - we thought we'd just create a new display form, so, in SharePoint Designer, we clicked 'New', set as default, edited in Advanced mode, deleted the bottom 2 rows and thought we were finished.
However, there was a problem - all the versions of the comments no longer show up. if I set the original form back as default, the comments versions show up fine.
We want to remove 2 unnecessary columns, but we want versioning to stay.
Any ideas on what we should do here?
