Creating a Toolbar

Posted: 30 Jun 2004 08:20 PM PDT

Hi Rob,

Sure any file can contain a toolbar... but I never succeeded in SHOWING one
that isn't present in the Global as well

Toolbars. 
a specific template, not in other project files or in the global mpt. 

Task Duration

Posted: 30 Jun 2004 07:02 PM PDT

Rob,

You are correct. Project tracks time to the minute and it
is certainly configurable (limited) via the Tools/Options
tab into hours etc. It becomes more of a problem during
levelling or resolving resource over allocations. A
problem that could be (easily?) resolved if during
levelling it was possible to force project, via a
preference setting, to adjust the duration to the nearest
15 minutes. The transport from Project into the external
accounting system is a manual process at present. The
significance is having project and the accounting systems
balance. Have tried the creation of durations in a
spreadsheet and copy/paste into project....but once
levelling etc is done I get the same result.
What I do is after I finalise a baselined project, then
manually adjust the duration allocation via the Task Usage
for each resource - okay for small projects but an
absolute nightmare for large projects. Even more so when
updating the plan with actuals.
The only other thought I have been "entertaining" is to
write a VB script to do this.....but I would prefer not.

 
recall. It's 
Tools/Options, Schedule tab 
units, and use 
the data out, 
display any number 
with 

hiding columns

Right mouse click on the column header to see "hide" column. As you do
that, notice just above that menu is the "insert" column command. You
can find this in Help by asking the "answer wizard" that question.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

upgrade to 2003

Hi Joe,

If you are using the Standard version of 2000, upgrading to 2003 Standard is
simple :) If you're talking about the Professional version and integrating
with servers - that's a real task - in which case, try posting on the server
newsgroup. (Please see FAQ Item: 24. Project Newsgroups.)

Problem using Access to update Project

Posted: 28 Jun 2004 04:42 PM PDT

OK. I printed all the 75 pages. But I'm a newbie in Project trying to access
a project mpp file via access.
In Access, how can I open this file?

Sds,
