I would like to make a custom column using the massing tool and assign it as a "column". I was able to do this in 2009 but I have been trying to 4 hours to find the menu in 2010 and cannot find the menu to change my mass element from "mass" to column. How do you do this?

have you tried the 'where is my command' website? http://www.nichitecture.com/downloads/Where%20is%20my%20command%20in%20Revit%20Architecture%202010.html

5 hours in...figured it out!!! instead of "massing & site"..."in place mass", one must instead construct the mass under the "home" menu, choose "component", and then "model in place". at this point one can "MODEL" specialty columns, walls, etc. holy moly! that's the most confusing thing I've ever seen.

technically then, one is not constructing a "mass"...but geez..."mass"? "model"? this is an instance where if the menu said "site mass element"...it would que someone to say "gee, i guess i cannot use this to "site mass" a table leg. now i know, and knowing is...but if i recall correctly this was easier to understand in the 2009 menu system.

I hear you. I learned revit on 2009, so im still very new...when I came to my new office I switched to 2010. I felt as if I had to relearn the program, I wanted to furiously bang my head against a wall.
