Stephen -- The custom fields must already be in each subproject. Or you need to copy them from the template to each subproject individually. There is no way to cascade them through the subprojects as you describe. Sorry, but hope this helps.

- StephenC4 -- You need to copy the custom fields into the master project as well. I should have mentioned that in my previous reply. The custom fields must be in each subproject AND in the master project as well. Hope this clarification helps.
- Yes, I have done that but will check that I have done it correctly.
