Finding a page on Project Web Access that gives the project ID

[JosieMarley]

I'm very much a novice at all this but we have recently upgraded from Project
Server 2003 to 2007 and I'm now completely stuck.

Previously I used to be able to go to the Manage Windows SharePoint Services
sites page in Project Web Access and copy over the table - it gave me the ID
for the project, the project name and the share point site URL. I copied
this into excel and then used formula to work out the URL to go to various
project views.

But now in 2007 it doesn't give the project ID - that column is just blank.
Where do I get this information from now?

Also why is there anyway round the fact that you can only view a 100
projects at a time on the new Project Workspaces page? What used to be a
simple click in the top left hand corner of the table I now have to click and
drag down to select the first 100 rows, paste that into excel, then go back
and repeat for the next hundred - a bit of a pain when there are over 400
projects.,

Hello JosieMarley,

Project Server 2007 database schema is different from 2003. Project
ID column in 2003 is now replaced with ProjectUID column in 2007. It
is unique identifier data type.

In Project Server 2003, they show Project ID column because it was
integer number and easy to show on URL.

In Project Server 2007, each of the Project UID looks similar to
this: 51212269-688B-4DF3-8E57-0990443BEADE

You have to change your process and find the work around on new
version.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks
