Philippe,
I don't know exactly which screen you are in when looking for the 'Work' filed, but almost all of them can be customized to display the information.
In the screen you wish to see the 'Work' field, use your mouse and place the pointer at the top of the column titled 'Duration'. This...
I was able to go to MS Project 2002 Launch Event last week. Project 2002 looks to have some nice new features and solved some lingering problems. They have made some big strides with their enterprise management features. Hope they work as demonstrated and didn’t break anything else!!!
I...
I was able to recreate what you are explaining. I now suspect that you have “TaskA” set as a “Fixed Duration” task type. When I changed it to a “Fixed Unit” or “Fixed Work” task type the resource moved with the end date.
If this is not your problem, let me know if you have any constraints...
I think I understand what you are asking. Try to set the 1st task, that is the finish to finish predecessor, with the "Constraint Type" of 'As Late As Possible'.
To do this double click on the task and select the 'Advanced Tab'. It's a drop-down box in the middle left of the...
In my office we use MS Project 2000 with a Resource Pool and Project Central. On two occasions we have noticed that MS Project has changed the name of a project by added a ‘_TEMP’ to the end of the project name on the database. I suspect that it has something to do with the ‘Expand Timephased...
I will often save the document as a HTML that can easily be view by a browser. To do this, open your project in MS Project and go to [File] [Save as]. In the 'Save as type' drop-down box choose 'Web Page *.HTML'. It will then prompt you to select an Import/export map. As far as I can tell...
I don't know about a command line fix, and have never seen this specific problem.
My first though is that you may need a more powerful PC. I know when I opened the master file with my old PC it crashed quite often. I now have a top-end PC and it almost never crashes.
Also, you may have...
I repeated the steps you described three-times but did not get your results of the husband’s work spread over a duration of 7-days. My results showed the husband completing the task in 5-days, not 7-days. I can not explain how the husband’s hours were spread over 7-days if his Work and Units...
Allina,
I would recommend creating a ‘Resource Pool’ and attach your 15 projects to it. MS Project Help can guide you through how to establish this resource pool and attach your projects to it. Go to the answer wizard and ask it “How do you create a Resource Pool?”
Once you have the pool...
I have been a user of MS Project for a number of years and can tell you to tool is capable of doing what you are describing. However, I have no experiences to compare it to MS Access.
You need to understand that MS Project is not an easy tool to learn. There are dozens of variables and terms...
