    Hi Kumar

    I'm not aware of a way of adding an extra parameter/value and operator to the global change, but another approach that might work is to export the project to Excel, under export type choose Activities.  Open the spreadsheet, concatenate the WBS and Activity names together ina seperate column and then paste the resulting values in to the activity name column save and import back in to Primavera?

    Dear All I got it

    Dear All

    I got it finally..

    the global change criteria is .

     

    where

    blank....

    then

    activty name  =  activty name  & wbs name

    then again run one more global change like this

    where

    blank....

    then

    activty name  =  any user text(@,& etc)  & wbs name

    now apply changes.after that go yhe replace option and replace the character with space.this complets the task

    so there is no need to export and import also

     

    hope this helps

    Andy, The combining of

    Andy,

    The combining of parameters in the global change function works very well.  Exporting to Excel is cheating :)
