This is not a "conflict message", just a standard warning.

The Text2 field that you are bringing into the file has a restricted data value list and if the file you are bringing it into has the same field with data in it then that data will be lost.



Surely all the rest worked fine?

Hi Trevor



I tried it but it is not working, there was a conflict message "The value list data entry option is set to restrict the field to only those items in the list. This may invalidate some existing data in the "text2" field.



Am I doing it wrong.

Easy.

Open the Resource Pool MSP file.

Open the MSP project file that will use the Resources from the Pool.

Use Tools, Organiser to select the Fields tab, and select for Resources rather than Tasks, and drop down the file list to select the Resource Pool file (which will be there if the file is open).

Then just copy the custom fields into the project file.



Repeat similar for other files.
