    - %100 in Project 2003 and 0% complete in PWA When tasks are updated w/ (for example) 100% completes in Project 2003 and "published" I can understand why the same tasks in Project Web Access show the tasks as 0% complete. My guess is that the update from the Resource Manager (responsible to complete the task) in PWA is used to compare for accuracy (maybe the task didn't get done). But when I look at old tasks in PWA that were NEVER updated using PWA they eventally show as 100% complete to match the M.S. Project 2003 schedule. Does anyone know the timetable for when PWA uses the % complete in M.S. Project to update the PWA % complete column? Tag: autostart macro for microsoft project Tag: 77445

    - internet host who is best I want to make my web page live, and I am trying to pick the best host for my business for the best cost also. This is my first web page. I have looked on the webhostingtalk.com, searched on-line hosts, talked to alltel, yahoo, etc. and I am just wondering if anyone out there could give me some help in deciding who to use. I want 24/7 support/help, and I don't want my page down, and if it must be for the host to update I want it for as short of time as possible. I am NOT going to use a free web page host. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I have one more question, how do you get the internet to detect your page in the top 10 when it is spidering to find search results from let's say google or yahoo?

    - Filters Highlighting not Hiding An MSP I've brrn given 'highlights' tasks when filters ( even auto-filters ) are applied rather than hiding the tasks - how do I change this ? Even when I go to custom filters and use 'apply' rather than 'highlight' it still does it - I've never come accross this before - any ideas how to change this ? Is it some setting within that particular MSP code ? Thanks PS - other MSPs work ok. Tag: autostart macro for microsoft project Tag: 77395

    - Updating Table & Filter definitions in Plan and Global I have a number of tables and filters which are shown as belonging to both the open project AND the Global.MPT If I update any of these definitions, are the corresponding tables/filters updated in both project AND Global, or only one, and if so, which one? I had a VERY nasty accident yesterday where I deleted a table definition, and re-opened my project to find that I had lost ALL my indenting and plan formatting. the message said something like "Cannot open the plan as the table definition <<name>> has been deleted" Could one of you nice people explain if an update to a table or filter update BOTH versions of that table or filter? If this isn't the case, is there any way to tell which one is the most recently updated, so I can copy the updated one over the top of the old one (if you see what I mean) Yours in terminal bewilderment...

    - assigning a group of people to a task Is there a way of assigning a group of prople to a task by just selecting a single resource ? What we have is a team of implementers with 6 people in the team. In an implementation any or all of them could be working on the task(s) and need to record their time on Project Central (btw, we are still on Project/2000). These 6 people are all in the same Group and, if possible, I would like to be able to automatically assign them all the task(s) without having to go through and select them one by one. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how this could be achieved, i'm anticipating some form of VBA - AssignTeam with a %age assignment for each member but not sure how best to approach.

    - How to track time without considering assignment units? Hello, I'm using MS Project Pro 2003, non enterprise version. We are planning projets by allocating resources up to 80% (time available for projects, excluding all organizational tasks). We track efforts (with Actual work and Remaining work) and want a schedule reflecting the reality. For understaffing (less efforts produced than planned), updating actual+remaining work, and rescheduling the planning gives good results. For overstaffing (more efforts produced than planned, ex: the engineer worked 100% of his time on the task), we have to update the Actual work in the 'Task usage' view to see the planned assignment be updated with real efforts spent over the week. If not, we do not see the benefits of a work advance due to an overstaffing. Here is the problem: Task A ends Week 1 : Actual work = 3 days Task B follows task A: Actual work = 2 days 1/ When I input 3 days on task A, week 1, MSP delays task B to start on week 11 2/ If I input 2 days on task B, week 1, MSP detects a schedule conflict because it considers that task B starts at the beginning of the week, despite the fact that the task has a 'as soon as possible' constraint I seems like MSP spreads efforts over the tracking period, without considering tasks sequencing... How to track accurate efforts with MSP, when two tasks are overlapping during the timescale period (week) ? Any advice should be appreciated!

    - Restricting resource name entry All, I've used Project for years, but as a very 'light-weight' user. I'm now setting up an environment with 10-12 projects, each of 100-120 tasks, which is my biggest MS Project attempt to date. I have a resource file (resource.mpp) with my resouce pool, and the projects are linked to this pool. (all fine so far). I would like to restrict the data entry on the different project task sheets to 'valid resources only', to prevent creation of resources like 'MM50' when what was required was resource 'MM' at 50% ! I've tried the Project Help, and usenet, but can't quite find what I want. (Project 2000, 9.0.2000.0224) Any ideas? thanks, M. Tag: autostart macro for microsoft project Tag: 77368

    - SP1: Can't set Project Start date to anything but 2005 In SP1 (build 11.1.2004.1707.15) I cannot seem to set the Start Date to anything before January 1, 2005. Go to Project->Project Information and try setting the start date to say November 15, 2004. Close the dialog box. Reopen it. The year will be 2005, not 2004. If you actually change the system's date (not a friendly thing to do) to anytime in the year 2004 it will do it. But when you change the system date back to 2005, and open up the Project Information box, the year will once again be 2005. Anyone else see this? Workaround?

    - Linking Resource pools back to tasks Hello, I'm looking at using a resource pool with schedules inserted into a master schedule. But I'm also looking at doing some offline assignment value changes in Excel and import this back in. On a single schedule this is easy as I just link it to the UniqueID. But when I use schedules inserted into other schedules the UniqueIDs all change but Project is able to keep the assignments sorted out. Can someone tell me what mechanism is used by MS Project in linking assignments from inserted sub-schedules to the common resource pool. If I know this I can probably figure out a means to do what I'm after. Alternatively someone may have a workaround they are willing to post.

    - Scheduling Multiple Resources for a Task Hi. I have a Fixed Unit, effort driven task ten days long. I have three resources assigned to perform this task with varying levels of effort. Resource one will be on the task for all 10 days, Resource 2 for three days and Resource 3 for 7 days. I have Resource 1 scheduled for 100% Units, resource 2 for 30% and Resource 3 for 70%. The result is that Resource 2 is schedule for 2.4 hours of work/day for 10 days. I'd like Resource 2 to be allocated 100% of the time for three days. What would be the best way to accomplish this?

    - Copying Data between Excel and MS Project Hello, I'm copying and pasting data (Start and Finish fields) from Excel to MS Project. Several rows (tasks) of original data in Excel and result of pasting this data into MS Project (Entry Table) are presented in the Table below. General environment is simple: Default MS Projects settings, Standard Calendar, no dependencies between the tasks, no constraints, no resources involved. Some things need clarification. 1. On most tasks MS Project schedules Finish Date one day earlier than in the original, e.g. the task - 1-Feb-05 to 04-Feb-05 appears in MS Project as 1-Feb-05 to 03-Feb-05 with a duration of 3 days instead of 4 in the original. Seems like MS Project is performing according to the following logic: - Enters Start Date (it's correct for all tasks) - Calculates Task's Duration simply by deducting Start Date from End Date. - Schedules the task from the Start Date according to the calculated duration. Is it correct observation? Concern is that task # 5 is scheduled differently. According to the above logic it should have 14 days duration, but MS Project scheduled 10 days (2 business weeks). 2. Does it mean that it's impossible to copy and paste Start and End Dates in one shot directly from Excel into MS Project? Should I first prepare the data in Excel - calculate real task duration D=(FinDate - StartDate)+1 in another field, and copy and paste Start Date and Duration into MS Project? 3. Bottom line question - is there any simple method of doing this operation? Thanks for the help. Regards, Alex Excel vs MS Project Task # Start Date Excel End Date Excel Start Date MS Project Finish Date MS Project Duration MS Project 1 01-Feb-05 04-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/01 Thu 05/02/03 3d? 2 01-Feb-05 04-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/01 Thu 05/02/03 3d? 3 01-Feb-05 02-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/01 Tue 05/02/01 1d? 4 02-Feb-05 02-Feb-05 Wed 05/02/02 Wed 05/02/02 0d? 5 07-Feb-05 21-Feb-05 Mon 05/02/07 Fri 05/02/18 10d? 6 07-Feb-05 07-Feb-05 Mon 05/02/07 Mon 05/02/07 0d? 7 08-Feb-05 10-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/08 Wed 05/02/09 2d? 8 08-Feb-05 10-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/08 Wed 05/02/09 2d? 9 08-Feb-05 12-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/08 Fri 05/02/11 4d? 10 08-Feb-05 09-Feb-05 Tue 05/02/08 Tue 05/02/08 1d? 11 11-Feb-05 11-Feb-05 Fri 05/02/11 Fri 05/02/11 0d? 12 14-Feb-05 19-Feb-05 Mon 05/02/14 Fri 05/02/18 5d? 13 14-Feb-05 25-Feb-05 Mon 05/02/14 Thu 05/02/24 9d? 14 18-Feb-05 18-Feb-05 Fri 05/02/18 Fri 05/02/18 0d?

Then it would occur in May, etc. Is there anyway for MSP to produce these recurring tasks automatically? I am currently manually putting each incident of this task as a recurring task. The first "incident" of one day a week for 5 weeks in Jan. is one recurring task. The second incident in March would be a second recurring task.

    - *IMPORTANT* Message for Google Group, Usenet and AOL users! Good News! Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended? Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or synagogue will get them to Heaven. Others believe that water baptism, obeying the ten commandments or just being a good person will get them to Heaven. There are many other beliefs as well, but the good news about God's way to Heaven is found in the Holy Bible. The good news is that God came from Heaven to earth in the person of Jesus Christ over 2000 years ago and died for our sins(misdeeds). He was born in the land of Israel supernaturally to a virgin Jewish woman named Mary. He lived a sinless life for thirty-three years and then sacrificed His sinless blood and died on a cross to pay the death penalty for our sins. After Jesus was placed in a tomb He rose from the dead three days later as He said He would. The Holy Bible also tells us that Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven and that all who accept Him as their Lord and Saviour will live forever with Him in Heaven where there is no more death, sorrow, sickness and pain. The Bible says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23) This verse in the Bible says, "For ALL HAVE SINNED, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23) This verse says, "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8) In this passage the Bible clearly explains how simple it is to be saved and on your way to Heaven, "For if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you WILL BE SAVED." (Romans 10:9) You can be saved right now and on your way to Heaven if you will open your heart to Jesus and pray the following prayer: Dear Jesus Christ, I want to be saved so that I can have a home in Heaven when I die. I agree with You that I am a sinner. I believe You love me and want to save me. I believe that You bled and died on the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. I believe that You rose from the dead. Please forgive my sins and come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ for forgiving me and saving me through Your merciful grace. Amen. You are now a Christian if you said the prayer and allowed God to save you. Welcome to the family of God. Salvation is not a reward but a gift. The Bible says it this way, "For it is by GRACE you have been SAVED, through FAITH and this not from yourselves, it is the GIFT of God." (Ephesians 2:8) Nothing in the world is more important than your eternal destiny. The Bible says, "In Him(Jesus) we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins..." (Ephesians 1:7) If you have not yet made a decision to be saved, please do so now before it is too late. The reason why it is so important to be saved now is because you do not know exactly when you will die. You may die prematurely in a traffic accident, terrorist attack or some other way before you get another chance to be saved. The Bible tells us that we will spend eternity in Heaven or a place of eternal torment called Hell. It would be terrible to die and go to Hell when all you have to do is accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour. Some people that have already made Jesus Christ their Lord and Saviour worry about losing their salvation. The Bible teaches Christians that we can never lose our salvation no matter what happens. The Bible says it this way, "My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense Jesus Christ, the Righteous One." Yes my friend, Jesus Christ is able to save you and keep you saved. Please tell your family and friends, thanks! Have a great day! Internet Evangelist R.L.

The filter lists out the selected tasks okay, but the totals against the resource contain the total for all the tasks (i.e work, %cmpl, etc) assigned to the resource throughout the plan and ignores the filter. Does anyone know how I can show the resource totals for only those tasks I have chosen? Project MPV assistants - Do you not know the answer to this question? If so, can you please reply and I'll stop bothering this newsgroup. Thanks Paul Tag: autostart macro for microsoft project Tag: 77266

    - Project 2002/3 Filtering Question Hi, Sorry, I am posting this again as I never got a reply to my previous posting.

The filter lists out the selected tasks okay, but the totals against the resource contain the total for all the tasks (i.e work, %cmpl, etc) assigned to the resource throughout the plan and ignores the filter.

    - tracking Our company uses several stand-alone versions of MSP 2002. We do not have Central, and do not use time reporting. Is there any way we can track the true project progress? Can the date fields be locked so the manager's cannot change them, instead default to the current date when marking tasks started or complete? Tag: autostart macro for microsoft project Tag: 77263

    - resource over allocation We have stand-alone copies of MSP 2002 that our company uses. We do not have the whole Central package. Many of our managers have problems with resource over allocation in their project plans. We have tried to resolve this issue ourselves, using leveling and adjusting availabiltiy and never seem to get the results we expect. Can anyone please explain resource overallocation, how it works, the best way to avoid it, the best way to correct it, and any other info on the subject you would like to share?

But the setup process stopped and displayed the message : "You are trying to connect on a MS Project 2000 or Project Server 2002 database. Upgrade this database in oder to use it with Project Server 2003" I *never - never * installed any Project database on this brand new PC ! Thanks for any idea !
