User defined fields?

Hi all

I have a spreadsheet, with milestone dates on that the boss wants putting into Powerproject.  Theres several headings such as "name", "Value", Status" as well as the dates.

Im trying to make my own user defined fields for the headings.  I have created them under "User Field Manager" and selecting "bar" and "String".  Nno problem there. 

But when I add the columns onto the programme, nothing will appear in the column when I type unless I put in a token bar on the chart side.  How can I make my writing appear please?  Are there any properties I need to change.

 

Thanks

    Hi Christine

    The text in a user field only appears when there is a task on the gannt chart.

    My advice is to keep the data on a spreadsheet amd copy paste when needed in a programme.

    I will remove your surplus saves.

    Best regards
