hexman,
Try the CustomFieldRename Method. The syntax and fields that can be
customized can be found in the object browser from the Visual Basic
Editor.

Can I do it in Server version with Enterprise fields in EPM2007?

hexman,
Oooh, I can't help you there. I don't do Project Server. You can either
post to our sister newsgroup, microsoft.public.project.server or wait
and see if someone with expertise in those areas responds to this post.

Sorry,

You need to create/rename fields in 2007 via an admin account in Project Web
Access. You may be able to use PSI to rename Ent Custom fields, but that
requires the use of a professional programmer and learning the SDK inside
out!

To rename local fields in VBA try recording a macro of you renaming a field
and look at the recorded code.

thx
do you know the name of the PSI which i can do with?
thx

 

[Rod Gill]

If you can't find it in the SDK documentation then it doesn't exist. You
will then either need to extend PSI, or manually create the custom fields
(significantly quicker!)

my problem is when i like present in project center the informations
stored in (date1 date2 and date3) i like rename this fildes to
(startt1,startt2and startt3)so how i can to do this?

 

[Rod Gill]

I'm a little confused here, because Date1, Date2 are only custom fields in
Project and don't exist as enterprise custom fields at all in Project Server
2007. Are you displaying local fields in that view? If so I think you need
to rename in Project Professional then Tools, Custom, Publish fields and re-
publish in every project.

Sorry, In Project Server 2007 the admin manages Custom fields in PWA via the
Server Settings page.
