Replace custom field values with values from a version?

[Matt Steele]

Is it possible to transfer the custom field values from one project to
another using MSP 2003 Server's database?

I was looking for a way to read the code values from the one project
(.version) in the database and paste them in the other file (.published).

Thanks

The safest way to do this is using VBA to open both projects, copy the
custom fields then save and publish the projects. This will work in 2007 as
well. Note 2007 does not have versions anymore, they've been replaced by
automated backup copies.
