I want to include only nodes whose Term for VID 1 is, for example, 2.

However, the actual term might be changed by the user, so I don't want to select the word, I want to specify the term ID so the View does not break if the term is changed.

Can this be done?

thanks for any help!

Don't worry, when you select the term in the filter UI it's actually storing the TID internally, not the term, so while you visually select the term, you are in fact selecting the tid and it will survive the term being edited.

Wow that's great!

This must be new with Views 2? I had a nightmare where there was a typo in a city and when we fixed it the filters all broke. . . that was with Views 1.

thanks very much.

No, Views has always stored tids. Maybe if you were using term name arguments -- it'll break paths that relied on the argument (but you can bandaid that by using synonyms)
