Is someone else working on the project with you at the time?

If so, there is a huge issue surrounding this:

If they dont HAVE the corresponding view in the LINKED file, and you set your Local file to By Linked View and then STC, if they STC *after* you, and have no reloaded the Link (under Manage Links) prior to THEIR STC, it will undo the By Linked View setting.

Aaron,

Thanks for posting an answer to this question. Everyone in the office is wondering why their by linked view settings are magically changing all the time and to be honest it was starting to foster some paranoia!

This makes perfect sense...
