Cross Project TFS Work Item

Question

I am working with a 2010 TFS system where there are many projects and the team works across these projects. The issue I am having is that it seems Work Itmes are tied to a Project and there is no way to enter a "master" where I would select the project from a drop down. Note these projects are within a Project Collection.

Is there a way to do this or should we have put all this team's projects within one TFS project and get this for "free."

Answer 1

There is no cross project work item, and you don't need it, because work item belong to one project, but team can still working on multiple projects and get their work items in one query by selecting 2 or more projects in the query.
