    Very weird behavior here (and yes, I know it's not a supported combination!).

    • User opens a word document stored in a Portal Server 2003 (which already has custom column data)
    • User edits content of document
    • User clicks save
    • When the SharePoint page reloads, any choice field shows: 'Undefined'
    • User clicks 'Edit Details'
    • Pop up appears, with all field data present
    • User makes no changes, but clicks save
    • Field data appears again

    Seems to happen with some users, not others. Ideas?

    Hi Paul,

    The machines that are affected, do you know if they are running Office 2010 x86 or Office 2010 x64?  I did quick test here using SPS 2003 and Office 2010 x86 and did not see my custom field get overwritten.
