Hello,
I would like to add a column showing results of custom
calculations such as:

([Real Work]-[Planned Work])* Planned Duration / Work

I tried to create a custom field with a formula referring
to existing fields but no calculation is being done. The
new field only contains zero values.

Is it possible to calculate such custom information using
Ms Project? I need this information to present it in a
report.

Thanks for your reply.
Isabelle

Hi Isabelle,

Definitely possible, but it would be handy if you used the MS project
vocabulary (Actual Work, Remaining Work, Work, Duration...)

Hi Jan,
thanks for your reply. I`m sorry, I use the French version
of Ms Project and I tried my own translation!
Could you provide more information on how I could do that?
I couldn`t find sufficient information online.
Thanks again,
Isabelle

Hi again,

Are you in a version 2000 or later? Because it is not possible in 98!
In 2000 or later look for customized fields
Tools, customize, fields, Formula, look up the help

May I also recommend the newsgroup

microsoft.public.fr.project

Cela va bien vous faciliter la vie car on parle le plus souvent de la
version en Français.
Bien à toi,
