Problem summary
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
The glossaries capability exists only on data items. When the list column header is switched to use static text, the data item reference is removed. In the past a code technique was used to draw the data reference from the list column body but this technique cannot be used in tandem with the fix to another more serious defect. Therefore, potential solutions include 1. Use the data item label reference instead of static text. 2. Access glossary from the list column body item rather than the list column header 3. Create a data item in the model with the desired custom name and use it rather than the current data item.
