Customizing Query Results Display

Customizing query result display can be done at any time. Note that if you are using SmarTeam databases anterior to Version 5 Release 16 this operation is not mandatory prior to using the Reconcile capability for the first time. If you do not customize the display, this will be based upon the properties set for the query as explained in Customizing Queries.
