Adding v_GS_NETWORK_ADAPTER.MACAddress0 to sms_def.mof

Question
-
I have a sccm 2007 report with v_GS_NETWORK_ADAPTER.MACAddress0. But when I run it I get the error
An error occurred when the report was run. The details are as follows:
The multi-part identifier "v_GS_NETWORK_ADAPTER.MACAddress0" could not be bound.
Error Number:
-2147217900
Source:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Native Error:
4104
What would the entry in the sms_def.mof look like? We are setting up sccm 2012 in a lab, which has a configuration.mof, instead of sms_def.mof. Are these compatible? I tried looking for MACAddress, but didn't find it. I was hoping to copy the entry over to sms_def.mof. Is there an editor to do this in sccm 2007. It sure is an easy process in sccm 2012.
Thanks again,
Mark

You don't have to do anything custom for mac address. Just open the sms_Def.mof and search for mac address. It may simply be set to false.

Have you verified that the data does not exist in the DB? MAC Address on the primary NIC is data I would expect by default in SCCM inventory.
I would use SQL Studio to look at the data in the v_GS_NETWORK_ADAPTER table.
You could have a SQL issue rather that a MOF data collection issue.

I searched through and changed every entry of macaddress to true and still get the same error. I made the change yesterday and tried the report today.

Have you confirm that any of the clients are reporting the change? When you made the edits to the SMS_def.mof are you sure that it is right.
You only need to change one field only within the sms_def.mof. This assume that the field was not enabled in the first place.
