Hi, definitely using the internal name, the column names are simple and internal names have been created the same, only column not so is the $Title column which has a different display name.

Thanks for the suggestion but not an issue that I can see in this instance.

Ahhh, curse my fat thumbs 🙂 Looks like it is the issue, I checked the column name in the edit column settings and although I have the correct name displayed on the column the URL does indeed tell a different story.

I guess I fat thumbed it on the initial creation and corrected it, and then forgot about it.

I blame tinkering under the influence of a glass of wine or two.

Thanks a lot ganeshsanap for making me take a closer look.
