If a field description already exists on a SQL column, it's "erased" during import in an DDT project, and replaced by the generic "This field was imported".

Would it be possible to retrieve the value of Description extend property it it already exists?

Yes, that is a great idea. I will add this to the list and try to get this in ASAP as I think it is a great idea and would be very beneficial!

LOL....Michael, don't feel left out.  The reason that I added this was because I looked at the history log and saw that this was not the first request....so your posts have played a part too.  Sorry it didn't happen sooner!
