That is weird.  I tried a fresh report, and your solution worked.  Maybe there was some artifact/glitch in my original report causing trouble.   Thanks!  

Ah... figured it out.  I saw that Parent > Milestone ID was an available field in the report, so I modified its Text Mode to the following:   displayname= linkedname=parent namekey=view.relatedcolumn namekeyargkey.0=parent namekeyargkey.1=milestone namekeyargkey.2=name querysort=parent:milestone:nam...

I've tried both valuefield=parent:milestone:name and valueexpression={parent}.{milestone}.{name}, but neither gives a result.   I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks, Chris!  This is very helpful.  

Is it possible to update task predecessors through Fusion?  I just kick-started a group of 30+ projects, and I need to add cross-project predecessors to a specific task in each project.   When assigning predecessors last year (prior to us having Fusion access), I created a task report and pasted in ...

Hi all,   We have a suite of products that are broken into two basic project types--front-end content module projects (kind of similar to chapters of a book) and back-end for-sale deliverable projects.  The back-end deliverables are linked to their constituent modules through the use of cross-projec...
