    - Project Calender and working time Hi, I work with MS Projecr 2003 standard. I have set up a group of subprojects, one file each. They all work with one resourcepool. I have defined an projectcalender for the project. I defined it in projectinformation - projectcalender. The whole july is working days. BUT the program still set all days in july as not working days. The program seems to look at the standard calender in some way. Can anyone give me a tip ? /Lennart Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70478

    - Leave Reports Hi All Is it possible to get a report on leave recorded in Project (am using 2002 std)? I record all leave for a resource pool in Tools, CWT; and have set up a copy of the Std to use as the base calendar. The scheduling is working well, but I can't produce a report or view for team leaders that shows eg that Res 1 is on leave from 6th Sept to 10th Sept. Something they can stick on their wall, and look at. The Calendar View shows tasks, and Resource Calendar non- working days, but nothing at the resource level.

    - finding an unlinked object I trying to learn Project, I tried to attached an arrow to a task bar. Unkonwingly I did not enter an ID before saving. The arrow disappeared. Until I printed out the schedule. I now see it in Print Preview and I'm trying to find it to delete it. But it's not in my normal view. I'm assuming it's because the ID is actually 0. How can I find this arrow to delete it? I'm using the rollup formating marcro. Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70467

    - Can't get Custom Fields to work. Hi all, I was experimenting with MSP 2003 (specifically with Custom Task Fields). I customized Text1 field for Task and renamed it so "Sample" with Value list as "T1", "T2", and "T3". Added a single task and saved the project in MDB format. Then Externally, I edited the MDB file and added a record in MSP_TEXT_FIELDS as follows: PROJ_ID TEXT_CATEGORY TEXT_REF_UID TEXT_FIELD_ID TEXT_VALUE 1 0 1 188743731 T1 I also changed the ATTRIB_EXT_EDITED field for all the records in MSP_FIELD_ATTRIBUTES to -1 as follows: RESERVED_DATA PROJ_ID ATTRIB_FIELD_ID ATTRIB_ID ATTRIB_VALUE AS_ID ATTRIB_EXT_EDITED 1 188743731 206 -1 1 -1 1 188743731 210 -1 2 -1 1 188743731 217 1 -1 -1 1 188743731 218 -1 3 -1 1 188743731 219 -1 4 -1 1 188743731 222 0 -1 -1 1 188743731 223 2 -1 -1 Now when I open this MDB in MSP2003, the value T1 for my Task does not reflect my change. Can you please help me identifying the problem. Is there something that I am missing. Awaiting your help. Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70458

    - How do I create a project without actual dates? (where every mont. I want to develop a proposed project plan and I don't know the actual starting date. So the dates must be Month 1, 2... or Week1, 2.... Also, I would prefer to define the duration of tasks in months. Therefore when a task start at the middle of Month 1 and has a duration of 12 months, it has to finish in the middle of Month 13. To do this I have to define that month=30 days but also that every month has 30 days. Any idea is welcome. Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70440

    - Crosstabulate resources and tasks Can anyone tell me how to see a summed hours crosstabulation of resources on every MAJOR task? This may seem simple but if the resources are not allocated directly on the tasks but rather on the subtasks the program does not seem to know how to sum them up. Or maybe I don't know how to do it... It seems that the entire phylosophy behind the program is that one should see either the tasks OR the resources. Even the custom fields with the same names are different when reffering to tasks or resources. Thanks in advance :)) Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70433

    - Critical path in MSP Hi everyone. I'm relatively new to using MSP in anger and I have a major issue with the way it shows the critical path. If all the tasks on the CP are dependencies of each other then it's all fine and dandy with nice red tasks to highlight the CP. If however you assign no dependencies but have all tasks assigned to the same resource, then it does not show these as the CP. Now my understanding of the definition of the CP is any tasks that, if delayed, will cause a delay in the earliest completion time of the project. By definition if all tasks are assigned to a single resource then a delay in any task will therefore cause a delay in the project and so is critical! Anyone got any thoughts on this as it's quite significant if I can't easily identify the CP in a large schedule (currently around 700 lines and growing.) Dave. Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70423

    - Lotus Agenda Rewrite? Hi all, In my "spare time" I'm thinking of throwing together a .Net version of the old Lotus Agenda, one of my all-time favorite software programs. It wouldn't be exactly the same, naturally . . . Below are my preliminary functional specs -- your thoughts? Any programmers out there itching to write the RecognizeWhenDate object <g>? Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------- The software stores Items (a collection of words), Notes (a collection of words associated with an Item), Categories (Index elements, each a single word), Attributes (Entered Date, When Date, Completed Date, Home Phone, Cell Phone, Work Phone, Address, eMail1, eMail2, or user-defined), Hierarchies (of Categories), and Views (a screen layout containing a treeview of the Categories with a column for Item, and optional columns for Categories and Attributes). The software needs to understand dates entered in a wide variety of fashions (e.g. every first Saturday in November). When you enter an Item it becomes associated with the Category under which you entered it along with any Categories matching the words that it contains. In a view, display in the rows beneath a Category column either a check-mark or a name of a child (or children) of the Category in the heading's Hierarchy. If the column heading is an Attribute display the actual value of that Attribute for each item. You should be able to sort and filter views. Categories auto-complete as you type them (sound effects optional). Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70408

    - "Pretty" Project Plans ... Folks, I'm fishing for ideas to use for learning and examples. Anyone know of some articles, books, web sites, or tools which discuss and give examples of great and world-class project communication methods and graphics? A senior executive dropped by my office this week, seeking my help for her project team. "Rob, do you have any ideas on how we can better communicate project plans?" I said, "Well, my first guess would be that they use Project to create a view of the plan in a way which communicates the intended message.". I explained how I prefer to always communicate in context and avoid complexity. "No!", she asserted. "Project is c..p! Look at this!". With great disdain she thrust into my hands a B&W paper copy of the latest PowerPoint-based presentation "papers" about her project used at the recent "stakeholders" meeting. "We want pretty project plans. Our executives and stakeholders won't understand it otherwise." On the single page where schedule/plan was addressed, the PM for the project had included a screen shot (using the camera icon of the current Microsoft Project plan). : It looked to be a 125-150 task schedule in which they showed a subset of 29. These tasks were a mixture of summary tasks with some non-summary tasks. Not clear why they chose that set of tasks (no explanatory words on page) : The columns ID, Task Name, % Complete, Start, Finish, and a Gantt Chart covering 3 calendar years by Quarter (even though it is a 1.5 year schedule ... so the right 1/3rd of diagram was empty). : The % Complete field only filled in 7 of the rows ... not sure how or why they blanked out other rows (guess to hide the cells which showed 0% complete). The executive said "We don't understand how % compute is determined. These numbers can't be right. They shouldn't show them." : The author used deadline field arrows/field (good) on some teaks, but did not include a legend (bad) which then the executive complained about as "what is this??? This is confusing!" : There were a few predecessor links shown between the summary tasks (I have discomfort with that). : The summary bars had the beginning/ending triangle blocks. The Gantt bars had no indication of progress inside the bars (which was expected by my executive friend). : The executive took offense that the author of the PPT page chose to include the Project ID field on the screen shot. "That shows nothing". It was a "step out" for this PM to try showing the Project Plan in a MS Project Gantt Chart, but they fumbled the job and the risk is that they won't try again and will be forced to abandon their use of Project as a project tool and instead move to managing the project with PowerPoint. In general, this organization uses Project only as a means to send "data" (not all of it meaningful, IMHO) about projects to the Project Office, who in turn then assembles reports (automated tools) for senior executives who then report-on project status on behalf of and instead of the PMs. The hoops they jump through to "fix" the schedule (with must start or must end constraints on every single task to stop the schedule from "jumping around" when reported to PMO makes the Project .mpp files unusable for anything else. Typically, they don't use Project as tool for project modeling, tracking, resource planning, cost estimating, progress tracking, communication, etc. I'm working on this 'problem' in my part time. It seems to be normal for executives in this organization to only be given (and I guess expect to see) 'pretty' PowerPoint pictures of a "thing" which looks sort like a Gantt Chart which shows open squares for scores of "milestones" plotted on graph ... they fill them in to show completed milestones. Lots of colorful bars on each row which look like Project Tasks, but really aren't ... they are more like phases or areas of works. These milestones are grouped inside these bars. I find these things way to complex, but to an art director I guess they have some elements of "prettiness" due to all the colors in use. The organization wants "pretty". They focus only on communication of milestone tracking. The senior managers and executives profess to not understand project plans otherwise. I guess I have an opportunity here to set the standard for how to use Project "properly" to communicate project status and plans "properly". I'd like to do it in a way which works and is seen to be "world-class", conveys quality information content and is "accepted". I have some ideas and ways I've done it (I think successfully) in the past, but am seeking some external influence here. I've done some reading in Kerzner's book, and searched PMI's library for some references. Also enjoy Edward Tufte's dabbling in this area (but too theoretical). While they need is for "pretty", having terrific content will be the swaying factor. I contend we can be "attractive" with content and still hit the mark. The risk here is that need to do it right as there won't be many shots at having an influence on this. Thoughts? Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70403

    - Renaming Baseline Fields Hi All, I need to change the names for all baseline fields to projected fields, for example: Baseline Finish becomes Projected Finish Baseline Duration -> Projected Duration Baseline Cost -> Projected Cost Etc. I tried creating a Custom Date (Date1) with the formula [Baseline Finish], but this populates the field with NA instead of a date. The only way I've been able to get this to work is by saving an Interim plan and renaming the Finish and Start fields, but this is not ideal because: 1) The reference manually I'm using says to not use Interim plans anymore. 2) It doesn't address baseline cost, etc. How should I do this?

    - How do I save e-mail to server for multi-users? We have XP and Outlook 2003 and have set up several users on the same computer. When checking e-mail, each user would like to see all the e-mail that has come in, but the first person to access e-mail gets to see the e-mail and no one else does. We used to be able to have it stay on the server for each person to look at it but now we are not able to. What are the settings we have to make to accomplish this task?

    - view limitations Hi all, I've added some custom fields to assign to detail lines (specifically used to record a "Timesheet Project" code to which costs for the task will be charged). It's allowing me to group/report/manipulate based on cost centres, but only to a point. One of the key reporting requirements I have is to report on work remaining in upcoming months, per project, per resource, etc. The Resource Usage view is great for this, except that my custom 'Timesheet Project' (of which there may be three or four in a single *.mpp) fields are task fields, and as such I can't group by these in the Resource Usage view. So I'm using the Task Usage view. The limitation here is that if I have a task which has multiple resources assigned, and I group by project & resource, I get a group heading for the combined resource effort, and need to manually split the time between the resources. Also, I find it infuriating that the timephased views have Work, Actual Work (and even Cumulative Work!) but no Remaining Work (despite Remaining Work being available in other views...). I'm using 2002 Professional. Do other versions have enhancements that solve these issues, or can anyone make suggestions? Cheers, M. Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70333

    - Printing "more items" How do I print an additonal page of the calendar that would show the "more items" list that don't fit into the calendar formated for printing. In other words, I have more items than I have space. But I want to print them somehow. I have messed around with page set up and format in order to customize the size to show all items but I have not been sucessful with that. Any ideas out there????

    - Circular Relationship error Has anyone encountered this error message in MS Project Professional 2003 before? If so, any idea how to correct it? ====================================================== No calculations can be performed now. There is a circular relationship in task 72 Conversion Enhancements of "project name.published". The successors of this task refer back to this task or its predecessors, causing a circular reference. To remove the link that is causing the circular reference, select the two tasks that are causing the circulare link, and then click Unlink Tasks on the Standard Toolbar. ======================================================= This project does not have any successors or predecessors listed for any task. So I am not sure how to resolve this. Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks, Lisa Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70325

    - establish a predecessor on a split task I have tasks in a project that needed to be split to accommodate tasks that took higher priority. Is it possible to set a predecessor on the second half of the split task so if the higher priority task completes early the split task is moved back as in a finish to start relationship? Or does it make more sense to end the incomplete task earlier and add a new task for the remainder of the incomplete task and have that dependent on the higher priority task? Thanks, Michelle Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70323

    - Stop users from removing resources from tasks when they have worked hours I need a way to prevent users from removing resources from a task when the resource has actually worked hours to the task in Project. Also, I need a way to prevent users from moving tasks when resources are assigned to the task with actual worked hours > 0. Thanks! Mark Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70322

    - Project 2003 Email Form Issues When I attempt to open an email sent using project 200 3, it opens using excel, versus the the specialized project e-mail form. The e-mail is sent when I ask for project updates, progress info, etc from team members. I can see the correct info. Do I have the association incorrect. If so, how do I correct it? The attachment uses the MTM extension. And I have downloaded and correctly installed the workgroup message handler. Thanks Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70316

    - Creating Formulas in Enterprise Custom Fields Hello, I have been creating 'basic' formulas using Enterprise Custom Project Fields. I have been somewhat successful until now. I have created a custom field called "Average Project Rate". I am using the following formula: [Enterprise Project Cost1]/[Baseline Work] Please note: Enterprise Project Cost1 is a custom field called "Contract Value". The PM will enter in the contract value when the schedule is first created. The sample I have setup will not calculate the above formula correctly: Project1: Enterprise Project Cost1 = $100.00 Baseline Work = 5 hrs Contract Value = 0.33 I am not sure how it is calculating 0.33 within the "Contract Value" Field. The value should be $20.00. I was fooling around with the formula to try and understand how it works. I tried [Contract Value] / [Baseline Cost] and this calculated correctly. What am I missing or not doing???? Any feedback will be helpful! Mark Etheridge PMP Tag: Project 4.0 files Tag: 70307

    - Update query I'm trying to write an update query by joining two tables together on a common field and updating the field in one table using the values in a field of the second table. However, I am unable to use more than one table when writing the update query. Design view of the stored procedure will only allow me to use one table.

Laurent,
Sure, if you can send the file over the internet, just zip it and send
it to me. If it is not corrupted, I will translate it to Project 2000
and return it.
