1. I search for files in a particular state
2. PDM returns the search.
3. We have a variable in the data card that shows the designer.  I have a column in the search results showing this same variable.
4. Out of 104 files returned 50 of them do not show the designer in the search window yet there are indeed in the data card.  The other 54 display correctly.

The search results are Drawings not models.  It seems similar to how it determines which configuration values of the model it displays.  At first I thought maybe it was displaying sheet tab instead of the @ tab but other variables are displaying correctly....
