Project OLE DB Provider

I have a .published file named "AIS_Employee_Mart (05-0238).published" on the
server. When I run the following query:

SELECT p.projecttitle, p.projectuniqueid, wp.wproj_id, wp.proj_name
FROM MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD p,
MSP_WEB_PROJECTS wp
WHERE p.wproj_id = wp.wproj_id
ORDER BY p.projecttitle

the value of the p.projecttitle field for the record that correlates to the
above mentioned project has the value of a different .published project with
a "_1" on the end. This is causing some errors in reporting.

Is this a known problem?

Thanks,
Brian

Thanks, Rod. I believe that's what I have. I just wrote it in Oracle's
query language which MS SQL Server, I believe, converts to the MS version
(but I could be wrong, I'm no SQL expert!). When I hit the Run button, the
query changes to:

SELECT p.ProjectTitle, p.ProjectUniqueID, wp.WPROJ_ID, wp.PROJ_NAME
FROM dbo.MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD p INNER JOIN
dbo.MSP_WEB_PROJECTS wp ON p.WPROJ_ID = wp.WPROJ_ID
ORDER BY p.ProjectTitle

I meant to add this to the original post. I named this post Project OLE DB
Provider because the Data Dictionary said that the MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD
table obtains its information from the Project table in the Project OLE DB
Provider. Is there a way to find out which Projects table this is referring
to?

OK, I think I just answered a part of my own question. The PROJECTTITLE
field on the MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD view pulls from the PROJ_PROJ_TITLE
field on the MSP_PROJECTS table. The data is also incorrect here. Is there
a reason as to why this may happen?

Brian:

Did this project begin its life through cloning? That would explain the
incorrect project title.

Thanks Gary. Forgive me, but I'm not entirely sure what cloning refers to.
Can you shed some light on that (or direct me to a source that can)?

Gary and Rod, thanks to you both for the help that you gave. This is not a
show stopper for us in any way, it's just something that struck my curiosity.

You copied another project = cloning.
