Project CustomField : Which Event To Take

[Parth]

Hi,
I have a Requirement : while publishing the project User will select
particular values from the the lookup Table and based on the values selected
i am suppose to assign certain values to the CustomFields for that project,

If i try the project published event will it work cause it itself was trying
to set the custom Field value for the lookupTable then how i can assign the
values to the project custom Fields ???

2. so on the First Publish it is not working...

which Event i can take so that once the Values to the Project custom Field
is assign i can later on assign other values to same project custom field.

Hope i am clear ,Please give me some suggestions.

Thanks

What about formulae in the other custom fields with If or Switch statements
to test the filed you set and display based on that?

Does the project need to be updated and re-published immediately or is the
next open time enough?

See I have a Sharepoint list which is generating the UID for me

Which i am putting inside the Lookup Table on ItemAdded Event for sharepoint

Based on the selected UID from the Lookup Table i am fetching the data from
the sharepoint list and assigning values to the custom fields on project.

If it happend while publishing its nothing like it...!!

P.s : I can use WSSCreated Event but it will be for the First Time only...
I guess i have to use something of Reporting Event Receiver which will
trigger after publishing so that code wont fail for the checkout project time.

Thanks for immediate reply
