Custom Field displaying interesting values.

[Phyl]

When creating a project I have some very unique choices in value drop down
for the Custom Fields. For example, in addition to the value drop-down
displaying the correct value it will also display the name of the person
logged onto the server as an option. Has anyone seen anything like this
before? It appears to only happen for the custom fields that contains
options.

There have been some issues like this in the past in both 2003 and 2007.
Make sure you have the latest service packs installed.

Hi Phyl,

I assume these are enterprise custom lists, if so,clear your active cache
(you might need to do this manually - cd %appdata%, cd microsoft, cd ms
Project, del *.*).

The value lists will then display correctly. Longer term install SP2 and
the latest hotfixes for Project and project server 2007.
