Project Information Lookup Values not working

[Steve]

Hi, My lookup values within the Project information Dialog Box have started
playing up. All of them now present random choices from a newly setup custom
field lookup. At the PWA end though everything is working fine and the data
is being "posted" correctly even though I have no idea what value I am really
selecting. is this a known issue??

This is a known issue on pre-service pack environments. What service pack
are you on?

The issue is that your cache files are mixed up. The solution is simple:

1) Close out Project Professional
2) Go to Start>Run
3) Enter %appdata%
4) This should launch a windows explorer session, navigate to Microsoft>MS
Project
5) Delete the folders 12 and Cache

This should clean up your cache and the next time you log onto Project Pro
the dropdown values should be clean.

Flush the cache. That usually fixes this....
