    When trying to publish, we recieve the standard error message.  After setting up the trace, we recieve the following. 

    >MSCRM Error Report:

    Reviewing the kb article, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947096, I've corrected the offending attributes/relationships, however, I still can not publish the custom entity. Is there any way to get around this issue other than restoring from a backup? Is there a way to delete the entity and start fresh?
