Project Keywords Overview

In Project Center, keywords are words you can add to project items to use for filtering and searching. When you add keywords, they appear in the Keywords column of the corresponding Project Center activity centers and dialog boxes. You can then filter the list of items using the keywords to quickly find the items you are looking for, as well as do a project search for items containing the keywords.

Use the Project Keyword List dialog box to add project keywords to a keywords list in the Keywords tab of the Project Center Administration activity center. You can then apply the keyword list containing the keywords to any Project Center project.

The Project Center Administration activity center lists the keywords used in the current project, including project files, email messages, and Project Center items to which the keywords have been applied. You can list all keywords, only keywords in use, custom keywords, or keywords from a keyword list.
