Description

b408011

188776465

FieldName: TaskNumberTest, a number custom field with a lookup table.

Guid: Refers to the custom field GUID.

DefaultGuid: Refers to the default value in the associated lookup table of the TaskNumberTest custom field.

The GUID value of the b408011 element specifies the actual lookup table value.

b408013

188776467

FieldName: TaskCostNL, a cost custom field that has no lookup table.

The value of the b408013 element is 7000. The US English installation of Project Professional shows the value as $70.00.

b408015

188776469

FieldName: TaskDurationNL, a duration custom field that has no lookup table.

The DurationFormat="7" attribute specifies the duration format as days.

The value PT40H0M0S specifies 40 hours, 0 minutes, and 0 seconds. Because the work day is 8 hours, that is five days. (PT stands for Project Time, for internal use.)

Project Professional shows the value of the custom field as "5 days."
