Hi Peasy,



The issue is going to be what reports you print. If the building data is in a text field (which it sounds like it is) you should be all set with printing from a task view or task report. The problem will come if you try to look at the data in the Resource Usage view, for example. Task data does not appear in the Resource Usage view - only resource and assignment data.

You can certainly type the multiple building names in the text field as it does allow multiple values to be typed in - but when filtering you'll need to use a "contains" instead of "equals".
