Hi,

for several weeks I was trying to get the full path of a task within
the Resource Usage panel. Finally I found this comment right here:

http://www.tech-archive.net/Archive/Project/microsoft.public.project/2009-02/msg01177.html

My problem is solved in some project plans now. Combining "Summary
Name" and "Copy Task Path" is exactly what I was looking for.

But now I have another problem: this does NOT work in a Resource Pool.

Can you tell me how to solve this problem? How can you display the
whole path of a task within the Resource Usage View within a Resource
Pool? I am using Project 2003. Is there an (easier) way do solve this
problem in Project 2007??

Thanks for your help!

If I understand you correctly, you need to see the full task path as a column
field in the left part of the Resource Usage view?

Not quite the same thing, but you could achieve this by using intelligent
WBS codes. First, configure the WBS code mask in Project > Define WBS Codes.
Then populate the field with meaningful data in one of the Task views -
something like P1.Test.Regression.

Then simply add that field to the Resource Usage View.
