DataView with a Document Library Data Source only shows Folders
For any of you using the DataView Web Part in SharePoint Designer, you may have run across an issue when looking at Document Library data where you have folders.
By Default only the "top level" items are shown. In my case just some folders, not the actual files living in the folders. There is a quick fix for this.
1. In SharePoint Designer, click on your Data Source Details tab, and click on the Current Data Source: (Policy Documents...)
2. In the Data Source Properties window, change the "Item and Folder Scope" drop down in the bottom from Default to RecursiveAll. This will show all your nested data.
I hope this helps,
