Using a formula =CONTACT wont populate actual contact info subtasks

Help! At the top of my projects, I am including the resources involved. I'd like for subtasks to be auto-populated when I fill in a resource. Example: in my resources section, I set the HL7 Engineer to Joe Downing. I have it set so all HL7 tasks then populate with Joe Downing.

PROBLEM: Joe Downing's contact info doesn't follow. Therefore, when we request row updates, check resource allocation, it views Joe as a new user. Help!

Hi,

The contact type field holds to pieces of info. The Text Label (Name) and the Email address. Formulae will only work with the text element not the e-mail element.

Filter on all HL7 tasks, enter the resource in the first one and then autofill to the remainder.

Remove filter.

Thats the best I can offer at the moment.
