= SUMMARY =

Whenever a view is renamed in Microsoft Project, the program searches through all of the existing dual-pane views and changes all occurrences of the old name to the new one.

When the name View 1 is used in a new dual-pane view, View 1 is deleted, and a new view is created and named something other than View 1, it replaces all of the old instances of View 1 in the dual pane with the new view name.

= MORE INFORMATION =

To re-create the above, do the following:


 * 1) Start Project.
 * 2) Choose Define Views from the View menu, and select New and Single Pane.
 * 3) Create View 1, where Screen is Gantt Chart, Table is Entry, and Filter is All Tasks.
 * 4) Choose Define Views from the View menu, and select New and Dual Pane.
 * 5) Create View 2, where Top is View 1 and Bottom is Task Form.
 * 6) Delete View 1.
 * 7) Choose Define Views from the View menu, and select New and Single Pane.
 * 8) View 1 is the proposed name. Enter New View for the Name, where Screen is Task Sheet, Table is Entry, and Filter is All Tasks.
 * 9) Select Edit View 2.

The top is now set to New View instead of View 1.

NOTE: Similar results occur when you use Filter 1 or Table 1.
