Task ID number in PWA and Project do not match

[LisaD]

We are using Project Server, Microsoft Project 2007 and PWA 2007.

I noticed today that for one of my project plans, the task ID number in PWA
was different than in Project.

When I open up the project plan from project server via Project 2007, the
second line item has ID of 2. When I print from Project, it also shows as
item 2.

When I view the same plan through PWA using the Project Center, the second
line item has ID of 7. (and all the rest of the line items increment
sequentially from 7)

I tried changing the line item through Project, and re-publishing. The
change took affect in PWA, but the ID number was still 7.

I tried adding myself as a resource for that task, and re-published and the
task appeared in my My Tasks, but the ID number was still 7.

I went back into the project plan via Project Center in PWA, and clicked
Edit. This opened up Project 2007, and the item was ID number 2, but the PWA
view still said 7.

So, whenever I view it in the native client, the second line item is ID 2.
When I view in PWA, the same line item is 7. So...all the line items below
that are 5 numbers off as well!

Please help
Thanks , Lisa

Weird, and I can't think of an explanation for it. I might recommend however
using the Unique ID field instead of the ID field. That should match in both
Project and PWA - and is a more reliable reference point for discussions.
