<&ELEMENT& not found> in workitem text

[Mike Pokraka]

Hi Sue,
Good point, auths are a regular culprit, but in this case it's all in DEV
and the odd thing is that it seems to depend on the name of the attribute.
I've renamed it a few times and just can't seem to fathom it.
Thanks for our feedback in any case!
Cheers,
Mike
