How 2 restore Enterprise Global to default

[Bill Meacham]

How can I restore the Enterprise Global template to its default state?
Somebody else made some changes that I want to remove en masse.

If you made a backup of the original pristine Enterprise Global file using
Tools - Enterprise Options - Back up Enterprise Global, you can restore it
by clicking Tools - Enterprise Options - Restore Enterprise Global. If you
do not have an original backup, you can do the following process to manually
restore the :

1. Open the Enterprise Global file
2. Click Tools - Organizer
3. Select the Fields tab
4. Delete every custom field and outline code for both tasks and resources
from the list on the right
5. Click the Views tab
6. Delete every View from the list on the right, but DO NOT delete the
Enterprise Gantt Chart view
7. Click the Tables tab
8. Delete every Table from the list on the right, but DO NOT delete the
Enterprise Entry table
9. Click Close
10. Save and close the Enterprise Global file
11. Close and relaunch Microsoft Project Professional

In the above steps, I am assuming that whoever made all those changes did
not edit the Enterprise Entry table and the Enterprise Gantt Chart view.
Hope this helps.

Very helpful. Regretfully, the former employee did not make a backup of the
original Enterprise Global. This will help me a lot. Thanks!

I tried and it says I cant delete Enterprise global from Organizer. And when
I try to open Enterprise Global it says Unexpected Error Occurred. The
document table could not be opened. Contact your system administrator for the
dabatase.
