Project Server 2003 PWA Project Center Views with Wrong Headings

[Aaron Miller - JHA]

Hey there,

I was wondering if anyone had ever seen a situation where a view within
Project Center was consistently showing with the wrong column heading, but
the correct data?

I walked through a client's Project Server setup and within the Enterprise
Global, the fields are defined correctly. Even within the View setup, the
view is defined correctly.

However, when the view is chosen in Project Center the wrong field name is
showing but the correct data is showing.

For example.
Enterprise Project Text 1 is selected. However, Enterprise Project Cost n is
what is showing on the view. However, the data itself being represented is
from Enterprise Project Text 1.

I'm assuming something bad in the DB, but I'm not real sure where to have
them start.

Any thoughts or ideas?

thanks,
Aaron

Yep. Known issue with Project Server 2003 pre SP3 running with SQL
Server 2005. Either hotfix it, or go to SP3.

Hi James,

thanks for the response.

We're actually looking at a SQL Server 2000 installation.

Then I don't have much for you. Maybe the same fix for SQL 2005 will
clean things up for you, but I'm not sure at all.
