I see no "Build Found" or "Build Fixed" anywhere in Bugzilla. Is that a local
customization on your Bugzilla?

What version are you using?

"Build Found" and "Build Fixed" are custom fields within our installation. 
Perhaps custom fields do not share the same default functionality as standard 
fields within bugzilla?

Basically, this is what happens: Say we provide some combination of search 
parameters in Advanced Search, then go to the "change columns" link at the 
bottom. In this, we can check the checkbox besides "Build Fixed" or other 
custom fields, and resubmit the page by clicking on the button that 
says "Change Columns". This change does not appear in the new page after submit.

Yeah, that's a problem with a bug in your local customizations. Bugzilla doesn't
natively support custom fields, yet.

Oh, by the way, though, if you'd like some support help with your
customizations, you can see the resources available at
