I have tried to copy my custom fields from one file to another file and the
global.mpt.

Project crashes.

I have tried this on 3 machines with the same results.

I tried saving to an mpd=, then opening the database. Same results.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Stretch.

What happens if you save to xml then reload?

Project SP1 has just been released. Download it from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=CEC3E1E2-D802-4A03-BC78-05C48472559B&displaylang=en

Try it on one PC and see if it helps.

Rod,

Thanks much for helping me again.

I'll try it. (I never thought of saving to XML; I don't know anything about
it.)

We tried on 3 computers.

IT gave me a new computer and I am still having problems. At least I can
copy cutom fields using the organizer and not crash.

We (in USA) have SP3 and I got the IT tech to install it.

I finally started over by exporting to XLS. Then Proiject had the audacity
to refuse to recognize column names it created.

I appreciate the help.

Have a great day.

Rod,

Sorry, I forgot to mention we are using Project 2003, SP3.

Cheers.
