How to: Add AccountName to Project

[ndaniels]

Version 4.2 OS.
I want to add a field for AccountName in Project - to track which account the project is for. And of course, I want to actually read the account names from the db for selection - as it already operates on the Accounts Edit page.
Now - using Field Editor I can certainly create custom fields, but I don't see how I can "copy" an existing non-custom field from one page to another. The "Sugar Fields" section for the Project page doesn't show anything for AccountName, so I can't add it from there.
I believe in my heart that this is possible (and probably easy), but I just haven't figured out how.
Thoughts? Advice? Impossible? Possible, but painful?
Thanks

Hi,

I'm afraid this is not as easy as expected because in the Sugar architecture, one project can have multiple accounts, so it can not specify which account to display first.

Thanks - that makes perfect sense to me. We'll continue with the current mode of hoping that users actually associate an account in the subpanel.
