differential sync to actual

Is it possible to have REAL resources in MSProject 2003 SP3 synced to actual
and the GENERIC resources NOT sync to actual after having set %-complete on
tasks with Generic-ONLY sources.

In other words ... we'd like to track technical progress on tasks that only
have GENERIC resources assigned ... thus, if we set a %-complete, it will
estimate the remaining work on that task for that generic resource.

If I do this now, it resets that task back to 0% as the GENERICS don't
report time via PWA.
