Hi



Why don’t you simply try:

IF: Your condition / filter or leave blank if for all activities

Then: "Activity ID" = X (i.e. the character you want to add) & "Activity ID"

Export along with the relationships, you will have 2 sets of activities when you import back, delete the first set by fitering/sorting.



Hope this works

Export the project file into excel.



Copy the activity id column into ’column B’ in a new spreadsheet.



In ’column a’ put the prefix you want to put in front of your activity id.



In ’colum c’ type the formula =’column a’&’column b’



Drag this down so that it is done for every activity.



Copy ’column c’ and paste special values back into the exported project file.



Save it, then import back into primavera.

Hi Girish,



try to play around with the given Modify Activity ID’s example of P6. You can you this function to extract text from you Activity ID which are Substring, Rightstring and Leftstring.
