  1. In the Other Views drop-down list, open the More Views dialog box, and then edit the view to find the table that the view uses. For example, the Task Usage view uses the Usage table.

  2. Close the View Definition dialog box and the More Views dialog boxes.

  3. In the Tables drop-down list, open the More Tables dialog box, select the table, and then click Edit.

  4. Select or clear the Show 'Add New Column' interface option in the Table Definition dialog box.
