Hi, If your current format is 000000 and the new format is xx000000, you need to do two things: 1. Extend the length of the field from 6 to 8 characters 2. Change the default value from nothing to "xx"
You must also figure out if you are storing the data somewhere else, such as 'Parent Ticket Id' in the same or another form. This may also need the new length. If you want to convert the old ticket ids to the new format, you want to do so with our RRR|Chive-utility. source_server = myserver source_user = Demo source_password = source_form = Trouble Ticket target_server = myserver target_form = Trouble Ticket qual = '1' LIKE "0_____" splitsearch = YES transfertype = MOVE entryidmode = AR000000 logfile = AUTO loglevel = INFO progressbar = YES Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se Products from RRR Scandinavia (Best R.O.I.
