Here is what I want to do... :)


I have a server
The server has 10 projects + my project
I want to open the same work item in the 10 projects and link it to a plan
item in my project

What is the fastest way ? :)

When you say "project", do you mean "Team Concert Project Area" (and not
"Eclipse project")?

What do you mean by "open a work item in a project"?

When you say "link it to a plan item", do you mean "add a references link"?

Cheers,
Geoff

Correct :) I meant 'Team concert project area'


What do you mean by "open a work item in a project"?
I want to open a task in my project area

link"?
Correct, I want a plan item in my project area and I want to add reference

link to defect or task in other project areas in the same repository

Thanks Geoff :)

So it sounds like by "open a work item", you just mean "create a new
workitem"? (The word "open" can sometimes refer to a state-transition
action, such as "open a defect" and "close a defect").

In which case I believe the heart of your question is "can you create a
link from an item in one project area to another item in a different
project area."

And the answer is, "yes".

Cheers,
Geoff
