Hi Renee,
The FAQ I gave the address of explains it all, and the fact that you re
still "trying" means apparently you did not read the FAQ.
There is no such thing a a resource visible in the task usage view.
What you see in the Tak usage view (and in the Resource Usage View!) are
ASSIGNMENTS.
Assignments have custom fields of their own.
If you want to show data from a resource custom field in the asignment
custom fields you have to copy the data, either manually or through a VBA
macro.
Manually, you can insert the field in the resource usage view and copy it
from the resource to the assignment lines (f.i. by Ctrl+D). It will then be
visible in the Resource Usage view a well.
There is an example of VBA code in the FAQ.
