Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

dear fellow
I think that your question make other alittle confused because when you export activity code from one project to other project it does not assign to activity! with this job you can just make new activity dictionary that’s all(it’s my opinion)
i think that you have three way:
1) define activity code manualy
2) use global change
3) access to enterprise database (PMDB) and define activity code (you can do it in several ways)

What you can do is: (if this is what you mean) Before you begin make a copy of your project. (with the codes) Delete all activities whats left are the "Project codes" you want to use. But do you mean Project codes or activity codes for your project (instead of global)

Hi Steven,

There is a transfer function, for transfering codes from one project to another. Just remember that when you transfer it overwrites any codes existing codes in the project you are transfering to, therefore it must be done before you create any new codes in the project.
