Chris --
When Gary said that the Enterprise Global has no task or assignment data
associated with it, I believe he meant that you do not enter tasks,
resources, or assignments in the Enterprise Global, as doing so will likely
corrupt the file. Instead, as you have noticed, the Enterprise Global is
the responsitory for all kinds of enterprise information, such as custom
enterprise Project, Resource, and Task fields and outline code fields. It
is also your organization's "corporate library" of custom objects such as
Views, Tables, Filters, Groups, Reports, etc.
If you create custom enterprise fields or outline code fields, your project
managers can select values from these fields in their projects and you can
mandate whether the field must be populated before a project can be saved in
the Project Server database. With custom fields that contain a value list,
you can set a default value from the list. With custom enterprise outline
code fields, users can select a single value from the list. The exception
is enterprise Resource outline code fields #20-29 which allow the selected
of multiple values in Project Server 2003. Hope this clarification helps.

Well what about the Enterprise Global Outline Code 1 and 2. If i store
data into these columns and the users use the data in creating their
Projects for each task. Is it easibly linkable in which value from the
enterprise global outline code is assigned to which task??
