back to the topIssues that the hotfix package fixes
This hotfix package also fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
- When you modify values in multi-value fields in Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 and you view the page that contains these multi-value fields later, some of these multi-value fields may not be consistent with the values or settings that you previously assigned to them.
For example, multi-value fields that you enabled in Project Professional 2003 may not be enabled.
This issue occurs if you make the changes to the multi-value fields by using Project Professional 2003 after the Project Data Service (PDS) has previously set them.
