    - Sorting (eg by start date) keeping outline levels? My org is small and mainly uses MSP as a scheduling tool. We have the one master schedule, with all of the different programs broken down in that schedule. An example of what the task namecolumn looks like: Flores Trip â?? Preparation Transport and Accommodation Book Denpasar to Kupang, 2 people for 31/4/08 Book Kupang to Maumere, 3 people for 4/5/08 Admin. Prepare 2 x field folders Call Cooperative X to advise of date and location of training Find Map of Maumere and add to folder prepare 21 copies of training materials Flores Trip â?? Fieldtrip Transport Denpasar to Kupang Kupang to Maumere Maumere to Village X Timor Trip â?? Preparation Transport and Accommodation Book Denpasar to Kupang, 2 people for 31/4/08 Book Kupang to Denpasar, 3 people for 4/5/08 Admin. Prepare 2 x field folders Find Map of Kupang and add to folder Print 45 copies of training materials Timor Trip â?? Fieldtrip Transport Denpasar to Kupang Kupang to Denpasar Activities Kupang - Bookkeeping training Kupang â?? Confirm flight to Maumere Kupang â?? Organize driver for maumere to village Y. I have been trying to create different views for the information so that the tasks can be sorted by date and by resosrce. The problem is, how do you do it so that the different outline levels are kept? Now if I sort the info, for eg, by what the admin team have to do, I only get a list that looks like this (assume all 4 tasks have the same start date): Prepare 2 x field folders Prepare 2 x field folders Print 45 copies of training materials Print 21 copies of training materials The problem is that I need a column in the reports or different views that says whether the task is for the Timor or Flores trip. Is a way this can be automatically generated, or can each task be listed by both levels? Timor trip-preparation Prepare 2 x field folders Flores trip - preparation Prepare 2 x field folders Timor trip-preparation Print 45 copies of training materials Flores trip - preparation Print 21 copies of training materials, Or even better Timor trip-preparation Prepare 2 x field folders Print 45 copies of training materials Flores trip - preparation Prepare 2 x field folders Print 21 copies of training materials Thanks, Kate -- New to MSP MS Project 2003 Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003?

    - Removing old programs superseded by new I'd like to clean out programs I don't use or that are old. In general, can you usually delete the earlier updates and leave just the most recent one? Or are they cumulative and the latest one relies on information delivered in earlier updates? (Example: I have Java 6 update 3, then Java 6 update 5, can I delete the earlier Java update 3?)

    - Special Formatting to values in Project 07 Hi all, I'm curious if there's a way to format individual cells in Project 2007 based upon values? For example, I'm doing a calculation in a custom field that shows me the variance difference in last week's remaining work and this week's remaining work. If the variance difference is zero, then I really don't care to pay attention. If the variance is > 1 but < 8 hours, I'd like to highlight the cell background yellow. While if the variance is > 8 hours, then it needs to be red. As close as I've seen is the "text styles" where I could highlight based on "cell changes". Where a cell would be highlighted if it has changed... but this has serious (if not obvious) limitations. Any input is welcome! Kind regards, Mike Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003? Tag: 136770

    - Copy Picture to Office Wizard in Project sorts resources Hi, I am using Project 2003, trying to generate a PowerPoint slide of my Gantt chart. When I use the Copy Picture to Office Wizard, it re-sorts the rows in my Gantt chart by resource name, which messes up the links between dependent tasks. The re-sort occurs immediately upon clicking the wizard button, and it even modifies the Project itself (once I'm through generating the slide, I go back to the Project and the rows have been rearranged as well). Is there a way to force the wizard to leave things alone and generate EXACTLY my layout and ordering? In the mean time I am using the Copy Picture to generate GIF images.

    - Secured Global.mpt for MSP2007std Hello All, I have several independent installations of MSP2007std. They will be sharing plans and resources, and viewing a master(consolidated) schedule file comprising inserted projects. I want the option settings for each installation to be universal, and that views table etc are common throughout. I also need to take control of the master settings to prevent damage and enforce standards. I think I need to do this to prevent incorrect alendar and resource changes. As far as I can tell some settings are in global.mpt (Options menu items), some are saved in each project file (eg view print settings), and some can be replaced in the file via organizer. I have have noted Rod Gill's suggestion to place global.mpt in a central location and have the MSP shortcuts setting redirect "Start in" to that location. However, that allows the user to modify the original file (some have admin rights). As an alternative, I was considering a batch file that overwrites the local global.mpt with a standardised version, retrieved from a central location. This batch file would be placed in all users' Windows Startup so it would occur each time Windows was started. Any inadvertant changes would then be remedied each startup. Does the location of the local global.mpt vary with updates etc? Does this seem a feasible solution? Is there a better way? Server version is not an option for us. Extra est AUD11000 for three users. Gulp. Regards, Adam Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003? Tag: 136716

    - Why Do Summary Tasks Show Incorrect Totals? I can't seem to get summary taks to display correct durations, and yes, I know it's supposed to be from the start date of the first task to the end date of the last task. Here's an example from adding a recurring task (Monday update meeting) to a project. The span is 35 days. The summary task shows a duration of 105.13 days. Remodel Status Meeting 105.13d Mon 4/21/08 Mon 5/26/08 Remodel Status Meeting 1 1h Mon 4/21/08 Mon 4/21/08 Remodel Status Meeting 2 1h Mon 4/28/08 Mon 4/28/08 Remodel Status Meeting 3 1h Mon 5/5/08 Mon 5/5/08 Remodel Status Meeting 4 1h Mon 5/12/08 Mon 5/12/08 Remodel Status Meeting 5 1h Mon 5/19/08 Mon 5/19/08 Remodel Status Meeting 6 1h Mon 5/26/08 Mon 5/26/08 Another summary task in a different project shows a duration of 0.38 days for 6 tasks totaling 16 hours of fixed work for one person working a standard calendar and work week. The resource is otherwise unassigned. The work column totals correctly, just not the summary task duration. Wed 1/2/08 0.38d Fixed Duration 16h Wed 1/2/08 3h Fixed Work 3h Wed 1/2/08 3h Fixed Work 3h Wed 1/2/08 3h Fixed Work 2h Wed 1/2/08 3h Fixed Work 3h Wed 1/2/08 2h Fixed Work 2h Wed 1/2/08 3h Fixed Work 3h Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    - Page Formatting I have tried a number of suggestions to stretch a schedule's timescale over the full page width of an 11 x 17. As others have found, the font can get incredibly small if the duration of the schedule is excessive. I have been able to overcome this to an extent by changing the font size using Format:Text Style. However, I always seem to get to a point where Project decides to adjust the duration rather than the font size. For instance, my duration is 440 days and my print out is looking pretty good, covering the whole page. I decide to enlarge the font for the column headers and when I next do a print preview, the displayed duration has increasaed to 880 days. Neither my timescale scaling factor in page setup or my print range have changed, but my preview shows a lot of white space on the right half of the page and my scheduel scrunched into infinitessimally small fonts on the left side Is there anyway to lock the time scale so it covers the full page width? -- Paul Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003?

    - using a formula in a customized field...syntax problem? I have created a formula in a customized field to collect costs in the Task table. I want to be able to apply a factor to the cost of a â??laborâ?? resource and not to a â??materialâ?? resource. I thought I could get it to work by using one or the other of the following syntax statements: IIf([Resource Type]="Work",[Cost]*(1+1.64),0) IIf([Type]="Work",[Cost]*(1+1.64),0) The above syntax statements did not work. The way I got it to work was to insert a name in the Resource table in the Resource Group field called â??Supplierâ?? for material. I then used the following syntax: IIf([Resource Group]<>"Supplier",[Cost]*(1+1.64),0) My problem is that basically I am lazy and donâ??t want to have to type in the text â??Supplierâ?? in the resource group field for my materials on the project.

    - Project Management Tasks (to be excluded from the critical path) As part of my project, most of the tasks are sequential and inter-linked (as normal). However, I want to have some tasks sit separate from these tasks because they are Project Management (PM) tasks. These tasks exists as "support tasks" to the other tasks. For example, for every week that the project runs, I will need 2 hours a week assigned to the "Project controls and reporting" task. Currently I've got it set up in a basic way. I've budgeted for a 6-week project so my PM tasks are sitting at the top of the Gantt chart as 6-week tasks. However, there are two obvious problems: 1. These tasks are set at 6 weeks, and the total duration of the rest of the project is only about 5.5 weeks at the moment. This means that I am planning to do 0.5 weeks of PM tasks after the project has already finished! How can I restrict the end of this task? I've tried setting up a finish-finish relationship with a "project complete" milestone task (one that is complete once all the functional tasks are complete) but this moves the whole PM task along. This seems strange to me since the task is not "fixed-duration". 2. Because these projects have the latest finish date and start on the project start date, they all make up the critical path. However this doesn't make sense, since they only are running while other tasks are running. How can I exclude them from the critical path calculation? How can I set up Project like this? I would imagine lots of people want to do something similar to this. Thanks Atreides Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003? Tag: 136647

    - automatic resource assignment I have what I believe to be an extremely common situation. I have a dozen programmers. For the purpose of this question, assume them to be interchangeable. Each has his own availability (due to hiring dates, other projects, ramp-up times) which I think I know how to represent in the resource information. Each also has assorted other obligations (support, review participation, meetings, etc) that I also think I know how to represent as tasks. All of these people are capable of a reasonable degree of multi-tasking. I also have a bunch of new development tasks that need doing, and to a first approximation it doesn't matter who does which of them. I would love to be able to tease Project into assigning tasks to resources, based on the available time that each resource has. I haven't seen a way to do this. I can make my own assignments, but I have to specify how much each person will work on the task. This is not a fixed number ... as each person has a different number of available hours each week (due to availability dates, ramp-ups, and other responsibilities). I would at least like to get Project to apply "the available hours" to a task ... but I cannot find a way to do this either. Essentially, it seems that I have to decide who will work, how much, on each task, starting when ... after which Project will be happy to print beautiful reports. Figuring out who should work, on which task, starting when, seems to be my problem. This seems a pretty common problem (it is one I've had continuously for the last thirty years) and yet I can't find discussions of it, nor have I seen sample projects that seem to address these issues. In a (surely different, but) related problem, I have deliberately assigned only a small fraction of a person to a task (knowing that they will have at least that much time available). Whether the task is fixed unit or fixed work, I often find that applying someone 10% time to a 25 day task, results in them doing four hours per week of work for five weeks after which the task is shown as completed ... (in only 20 hours of work). Apparently I don't understand when a duration is a start-to-end day count, and when duration is a number of staff-days.

    - Losing info going to Project 2007 We have recently moved to Project Professional 2007 from Project Professional 2003. We noticed that in some cases, we have lost some information in custom text fields at the task level. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on either keeping this from happening or a simple way to compare to see where the info is missing? Tag: can I install project 2007 while using office 2003? Tag: 136597

    - Mobilise/Demobilise indentifier Say i have an activity which is mobilising five days for three men. I can clearly add resources to that task, so that i can totalise based on any number of activities being worked, however what i am struggling to do is to flag up that on the day they mobilise they will take up three seats on a helicopter, and likewise when they demob, as any coding i input into MSP will apply to the entire duration of the task. Is there a clever way that i can apply a specific resource code to the first and last day, or is there another better way of doing this? Iâ??m currently able to identify passengers that travel out and back in one day using a resource name, however i canâ??t figure out the best way to do the above. Any help gratefully received.

All of our laptops are running XP pro with MS Office 2003. I want to know if
I can install MS Project 2007 or do I need to purchase Project 2003.

Hi Johnny,

I'm using Microsoft Project 2007, and also Microsoft Office 2003. Haven't

Hi Johnny,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

Make sure you have the latest service releases installed to allow 2003 users
to see 2007 projects properly.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)
