Copy Excel and Paste into MSProject

C

CH

An unusual and unexpected result occurs when I paste an Excel field into
MSP2000. What occurs is a number that coincides with the fixed column ID
shows up in front of the each activy "Name" (activity description). It
appears in the Ghant/Entry view but not in the Task Sheet view. In the Ghant,
the number is not showing up in the edit box nor in the task box and is
uneditable. My first impression these numbers were WBS's, but that is not the
case. I then indented a task and the number changes, for example, from 1 to
1.1, much like an outline. I checked the outline codes and there aren't any.
I checked the WBS to see if there were any entries (manual or otherwise) and
nothing is there. These prefix numbers even show up when I print a report. I
am absolutely perplexed. Anyone's help would be tremendous right now.

TIA
