Circular links but not linked

Posted: 23 Sep 2004 08:49 AM PDT


Andy,
The most prevalent source of circular links is when
predecessors/successors are applied to Summary lines however, you
indicate that is not the case with your file.

I don't have a ready answer but I do have some questions. How are you
"moving" the Summary and its subtasks (i.e. copy and paste, drag and
drop, etc.)? Where and why are the group of tasks being moved? How are
the subtasks linked (i.e. default finish-to-start or other)?

Unless someone else has a quick answer, I would be happy to take a look
at the blank project you created. Just zip it and send it via e-mail and
be sure to explain which summary group you are moving and to where.

Hope this helps.
John

estimated %complete driven by date

I am trying to drive estimated %complete by dates established for each task.
This feature use to be available on older versions of MS Project.

successor changes dates of predecessors

Posted: 22 Sep 2004 01:06 PM PDT

Are you sure you have B as a successor to A and not the other way around?
The predecessor is the "controlling" task and the successor the "controlled"
task. It does not necessarily mean the successor always occurs after the
predecessor, although that's certainly true most of the time. What is the
link type (FS,SS,FF,SF?) and what direction does the link arrow point?

project. Is this possible?

Creating a PDF

Posted: 22 Sep 2004 07:54 AM PDT

Ben, I use the PDF995 tool that can take any Microsoft application and print
it to a .pdf file. So, you can take any view you want from Project and print
it directly to a pdf file and you will see the exact same view that was
displayed in Project. the website is www.pdf995.com

Phil,
How many times do you intend to post? I answered your question as did a
couple other MVPs.

Project Web Access alerts and updates

Project Server sends an e-mail each time a resource sends a task update for
approval. Each user controls his/her own e-mail subscriptions by doing the
folowing:

1. Log into PWA
2. On the Home page, click the "Alert me about my tasks and status reports"
link in the Actions pane
3. Set up the desired e-mail subscriptions for alerts and reminders
4. Click the Save Changes button

Hope this helps.

Need to change Fri-Sat to non working days and Sun-Thur as normal.

Posted: 21 Sep 2004 06:28 AM PDT

I'm looking for a way to change every Friday/Saturday to a non working day
and every Sunday-Thursday as a normal working day in a calendar which I can
then make my default for all projects. Living in Dubai we work these hours. I
dont really want to change every year for this calendar.

Is there a MS Project template (or example) for planning a weddin.

Posted: 20 Sep 2004 02:18 PM PDT

Actually I think a Project template for a wedding would be a great idea.
There's got to be some wedding planner out there somewhere who has one.
Good luck!
