If you make changes to the '''field type''' and/or '''name''' the link to the original table field and/or data will be broken. (You can restore by reverting the type and/or name to the original state). If you change the '''type''' and/or '''name''' you will encounter issues since the table will contain field values of a type different than that selected or the field name will not match that in the underlying table. If the '''type''' and/or '''name''' are modified SME will crash when clicking on the module for the custom tables. You can change the description, but '''DO NOT''' change the '''field name''' and/or '''field type'''. The description is what shows on the custom tab.
