Jon,

While I appreciate this piece of info (didn't know about the container scoping control within the customize view UI), the original main question was totally about something else: I am not able to pull in a column from the core.containers table (the table being looked up by the container column) into my own query. The column I need is the "Name" or "DisplayName", just the textual string of the container. Specifying "container.Name" as a column in my query results in an error, as noted above.
Please, help with addressing that.

Thanks.
