Cost Center

[Robert]

I'm trying to find documentation on the 2007 Resource field "Cost Center."

I'm trying to understand MS's thinking when they created it, and not
allowing it to be associated with a look-up table/list. Most cost center
account num,bers that I have seen are rather long and prone to mis-keying.

Any thoughts/directions will be appreciated.

Hi Robert,

You truly are a brave man, "trying to understand Microsoft's thinking" ... I
gave up on that years ago.
By all means, AFAIK that field isn't used in any native calculation so you
can replace its function (if any) by a customized text field that DOOES have
a value list property.
Hope this helps,
