SharePoint: BaseViewID in Sharepoint List View Element

Hey,

I have created a SharePoint List named "Tasks" using CAML approach - For the same I had created a dummy Tasks List and took the Schema of the list using SharePoint Manager tools.

Note that within my dummy Tasks List, I had created 2 customs views however when I looked carefully at the Schema the BaseViewID was always 1 tho it was a custom view.

I deployed my List and I wanted to show the View on my Default page using ListViewWebPart but when I was mapping my BaseViewID it was not showing the right View.

It took me hours to figure out that SharePoint was referring to the Tasks Schema within the below path - why ? may be because my list name was Tasks... My customer wanted to use the same name and I had to find out some solutions...

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\TasksList\Tasks

On my custom view I gave a different unique ID mentioned by Brian Bedard but it didn't work...

Finally, I decided to re-create the List Instance with the same name "Tasks" but this time using the assistant of Visual Studio which provide a nice interface to create Views and there it worked - It created the custom views with different BaseViewID.

Here is the Elements.xml of the Page (Module) if it can help anyone
