longDescription

Hi team:

We have CR Description data in CR's from last year which I need to copy into the RTF longDescription field for each CR. Is there a utility for doing this?

 

Likewise, the Proposed Solution field.

thanks

Rick

If these are old pre-rich text Change Objects then PTC supplies a utility for moving/copying the old non rich text fields to the corresponding new rich text fields:

wt.change2.converter.richtext.ChangeSimpleToRichTextUtility

Please search help for the "typemoveutility". Just used it on similar case for change tasks and works great. Just beware for some reason it messes with the created date so we had to take record before running it and then repopulate it via SQL script after using the utility.
