Exchange of Data between WSS and Project

[Adrian]

Hi,

We are using the Microsoft Project EPM solution. I wondered if there was a
way of populating a custom cost field (say Enterprise Cost 1) in a project
from the Risks Cost field that is available in the Project Workspace ?

I'm assuming that the risk is linked to the task, and that there must be a
way to tie in the cost (either from the standard field, or a custom one I
create in the workspace). I'm further assuming that we need to reference
between the project Server DB and the WSS Content DB in some way.

I'm not a programmer, but I'm sure this must be possible - so any advice on
how this could be achived would be appreciated.

Thanks

Ian

Ian,
You have posted to a newsgroup that is going away. Further, your
question seems to be focused on Project Server. Take a look at FAQ 24 -
