Description
Upgraded to 6.x-3.2. Created a view that pulls the filename, size, upload date, and description. All of these work fine except for Description which is always blank despite typing in a file description. Any idea why or how to fix the view? Have tried creating both a node and a file view, neither type pulls the Description. Thx.

You should be able to pull in the description by adding the "Content: Field name (field_name) - data" field. Then select to display the "Description" data. I'm not sure if you've done this already, a simplified view export or a step-by-step guide to reproducing could help answer the question more accurately.

I went back and redid the view from scratch as you describe above and it worked. The old view would not work even with modification. Don't know why.
