According to the User Guide and the tutorial, when you highlight a project the "Selected Project" field in the upper left corner should show the Name, Number, Client, and Status info. When I create projects, it shows in HTML format (maybe). See example:

<span style="font-family: Tahoma:font-size:+1pt;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Name:</span> Arrom New Home<br/> .....

Why is it doing this and what can I do to fix it?

Also, when I check the project in and then try to check it out, I get an error: "Check Out failed. The project 'Arrom New Home' checked out in LANSync database to user ID: [1] Name: [Sunni]." Okay - that's me and I just checked it in, how can it still be checked out to me?

Okay, I figured out (by creating a couple test projects) that when I put the '&' symbol in the customer name field, this is what screws it up. Ex: Fedor, Jim & Jo Ann. If I edit the project and make it: Fedor, Jim/Jo Ann, it comes out fine. But this is kinda dumb and needs to be fixed.

But this doesn't fix my second problem - can't check out that project. I will start a new thread on this topic.

The first error - we're VERY aware of - as our company name is S&T Enterprises - and everything we do comes up with that error. It would be REALLY nice if they'd fix it! As for the 2nd - dunno - haven't seen it... sorry.

This is a bug that will be fixed in SP3.
