How can I Controll the view when accessing PWA? We have an internal web page
with a hypelink to the project like this example
http://tlruspm01/pwa/ProjectDrillDown.aspx?_projectUID={FF4C8F54-E903-4BD2-B02C-9363837FBEAD}
The view that comes up when PWA comes up is what ever view the user was last
in. Is there a way to control this? Especially when clicking a hyperlink.
Can something be added to the hyper link to call up a canned or custom view?

I believe all you need to do is to change the URL in the internal Web page.
Try this:

1. Navigate to the Project Center page.
2. Click the name of the project in the data grid.
3. On the Project Details page, click the View pick list and choose the
View you want people to see by default.
4. Select the URL in the Address bar and click Control-C.
5. Paste that URL into the internal Web page.

Now when people click the URL in the internal Web page, it will not only
direct them to the project in question, but it will also display the Project
Details view you want people to see. Hope this helps.

Thanks Dale, that works.
I was trying to pick this URL up out of the database. The project itself is
available in the DB.
