In the below example 

----------------------------------------------------------------
#+PROPERTY: Age 25
#+COLUMNS: %25ITEM %Age

* Heading 1
* Heading 2
----------------------------------------------------------------

When I try to use column view to edit the property it is not using the
format that I mentioned at the file level.

But the following one works

----------------------------------------------------------------
* Heading 1
  :PROPERTIES:
  :Age: 25
  :COLUMNS: %25ITEM %Age
  :END:
* Heading 2
----------------------------------------------------------------

Looks like the file level settings are not working.

Thanks and Regards
Noorul
