Restore Deleted Activity Codes

Hello,

During a process of passing XERs back and forth with a consultant, all activity codes for about 2000 activities were deleted.

Are there any automated ways of adding them back in using a previous version where the codes still exist?

Thanks

are you sure that they were deleted or not just imported ?

Alwasy priro to doing any major change select file send project 

this will automatically create an xer file and will automatically make it an attachment it your your default email program

then email it to yourself thsi way you alwasy have a recent backup

If you are able to import a previous XER file that contains the original codes and values, then you can use XLS export/import to reassign all the values from the previous project to the current project quite easily by matching the values assigned by Activity ID and using vlookup formulae.
