Yes, that's the one. Works brilliantly in Team Explorer, but totally
breaks in TSWA, to the point where when you choose a valid
area/iteration, you can't save the work item.
 
It appears to be a bug in TSWA around processing the WHEN values.

Hey Dylan,

Subject: Prevent a work item from having a root Area

 

We have a project where all work items need to have an area assigned, so
they shouldn't use the root area path.

 

I saw a good tip on preventing users from assigning a particular area or
iteration and we tried it out here, but the particular method described
didn't work with TSWA, only with Visual Studio Team Explorer. (I can't
find the tip anymore, it may be gone now, but the discussion around it
can be found in
http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2009/03/22/sorting-by-multiple-colum
ns-in-work-item-tracking.aspx at the bottom.)

 

Can anyone recommend a quick way of achieving this that works in TSWA?
