Auto Counters

[kgillen]

Does anyone know how to setup autocounters on a project that apply across the project.

We have a project.  I setup an auto-counter for the Requirement element type e.g. REQ0001.

I create a new Requirement element, press Auto and get REQ0001.  SO far so good.

My colleague loads the same project, create a new Requirement element and presses Auto, but gets nothing.  He setsup an auto-counter for the Requirement type e.g. REQ0002.  When he nexts creates a Requirement element and presses Auto he gets REQ0002.

When I then create a new Requirement element on my machine and press Auto I get REQ0002.

Do auto-counters only apply to a specific EA Users machine or is there some way of making them project wide?

Kierien.

This looks like a cross-posting .... it's already on Addins and Tools (and should actually be in General Board instead !)
Please think about moving it (them) to the most appropriate place. Thanks.
