    Also - is it possible for me to move the custom fields around in the drop-down box? For example, the custom fields are showing as the below when I open the project details but I have my columns set up in a different order. I would like to move them to mirror this in the drop down box also if possible?

    Many thanks,

    Rebecca

    Thanks Ismet. Luckily, I hadn't added any data into the fields as yet, but will definitely bear this in mind for the future.

    Just beware that deleting a custom field removes the formula it contains, but not the data it contain. Unfortunately, you need to do some manual work to remove the data as well.
