I want to create a customize activity ID numbering structure. I used the customized WBS feature in MS Project and created a numbering structure line the "Instead of numbering this way. Is there a way in MS Project to incremently 5 to every id number like in the example "Numbering this way." For example:

Instead of numbering this way A10.00.01.01, A10.00.01.02, A10.00.01.03

Numbering this way A10.00.01.05, A10.00.01.10, A10.00.15
I want the system to automatically add increments of 05 to each new task I add at level 4.

Thanks.
 
In P2003 there does not appear to be a way of changing the increment value.

As a workaround, write a piece of VBA to pre-populate the WBS column or you could run it periodically to look for blank rows and then populate those with the appropriate values.
