Uninstall Project 2002

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 11:15 AM PDT

Oh well. I guess planning projects in Cisco no longer a priority. Glad
that I sold my shares :-) !

I recall that how to un-install without the programme CD has been
previously discussed, but I can't remember the details. Try searching
Microsoft's Knowledge Base for this subject, and also search the
newsgroup via http://google.groups.com for where this discussed
previously. My hunch is you have to get the operating system to forget
it about Project in the registry. Given that, I wouldn't recommend
going into the registry and doing anything manually about it.

What happens if you just install Project 2003 over the top ... maybe you
can obliterate 2002 that way. Can't hurt anything to try, can it.

Easy Question: Actual Duration

Thanks all.
Does it take into account actuals ($) for 'material' resources or just
labor resources?

Why does Project file get corrupted???

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 06:41 AM PDT

No links between Project Files not even through the Resource Pool.. Nobody..
and I mean nobody can save the Resource Pool.... but that is not a good
enough answer. It is happening more often now that we are using Project Pro
2003, before we were using Project 98 and had less cases... but we could not
repair... with 2003 we can repair sometimes.. but we have more corruptions.

Planning Wizard does not appear

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 05:53 AM PDT

Hi Cindi,
Beginning with the Project 2002 release the Planning Wizard no longer
prompts you to save a baseline when you save the file. I don't believe there
is any option of forcing that prompt to show up..
As JulieD noted, a user must go to the Tool --> Tracking --> Save Baseline
command when they want to save the baseline.
Hope this helps.

File Size Expansion Problem

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 04:31 AM PDT


Fuad,
First, I'm not an expert. I'm just another user who's been there and
done a lot of that. It sounds like the file might have some corruption
or is very heavy into graphic content. Go to the MVP website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm
and look at FAQ 43 - file bloat? might be corruption

If your file has inserted graphics or a really complex Gantt
presentation, consider deleting excessive graphic content.

Hope this helps.

How do I get successor tasks to start on next day rather than sam.

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 03:55 AM PDT


David,
Let me offer an alternate approach to Steve's suggestion. A simple VBA
macro can be developed that automatically shifts the start time for all
tasks to the next working day. The macro can be designed so that it does
not apply a constraint but uses a variable lag time. It is a little more
tricky but very doable.

monitoring actual work

Posted: 26 Oct 2004 01:47 AM PDT

Well, that is the same conclusion we have come to here. Excel will be the
software we use. However I do want to make one further point and that is the
projects we monitor contain all the same concepts that PMBOK does. There are
tasks that have work and durations - they begin and end - they are planned
and there is actuality. (They have resources but we are not so interested in
them since they are outsourced and are a fixed cost - but for the sake of
argument, we could treat resources traditionally). Milestones are noted,
deliverables delivered. But in addition to all of that is the concept that
individual units march thru a subset of tasks. One patient went through
"Recruit patients" then went through "Test efficacy". Their progress and
numbers have an effect on task completion, cost and % complete. It is a
different way of looking at project work but most often if a way to look at a
production line. Thank you for you consideration of the problem.

can anyone explain how to enter subtasks in Project

Posted: 25 Oct 2004 03:33 PM PDT

You can also use the arrows on the Formatting toolbar. Select the task
you want to indent or outdent (or multiple tasks) and click the
appropriate arrow.

Subtasks are Intented Too Much

Posted: 25 Oct 2004 02:31 PM PDT

In that case it sound like something other than Project :( Maybe you'd
better start again with Office and then Project. It sounds as though you
have a rogue set up with this workstation.

Removing Subprojects

Posted: 25 Oct 2004 09:55 AM PDT

Sometimes you can get that statement that it can't be added because you are
adding a subproject which contains a subproject which already exists in the
master project.

In some cases the simplest and best thing to do is simply create a new
master project and insert the subprojects fresh.
As long as you have no tasks in the master project (something I'd recommend
against doing by the way) then it won't take much time to do this.

Hi Chris,

But A and B can interrupt C (same end result) and that Project's leveling

Posted: 25 Oct 2004 09:11 AM PDT

Project 2003 Standard has a subset of features of Project 2003 Pro. The
additional features in pro are the "enterprise" features enabled by using it
with project server. Project 2003 Standard can save the files in a database,
but does not provide any of the project web access or integration with
sharepoint or enterprise resource management or the enterprise global file.

I think if you spend some time looking at:

http://microsoft.com/office/project

you will be able to get a more complete explanation than I can post here.

Linking Workplans

One other question that comes to mind on my "linking master workplans into a
master workplans" qestion, please. Will this work if we are keeping all the
plans in the area of a database tool (we use QuickPlace)?....or does this
only work if I have Project Server, etc.?

Thanks for your comments Steve,
The fact of the matter is that in the exhibit design industry, the design
company creates preliminary work, gives it to the client for revisions and
back and forth so much that I had to give a lot of time on the calander.
What I was really looking to show the investors on this project was the
earned value of having spent a little more money on hireing a new "hot shot"
designer that made this particular job go very well.
I did not know that the tracking metrix of Project was so stringent that it
wouldn't let me ascape the set confines of some of the fields.
You have been a big help and I want to thank you for your time.

Hod do I insert multiple sub projects?

Posted: 23 Oct 2004 09:05 PM PDT

Make a copy of the file, change its start date, and insert the copy. That's
not so farfetched as each iteration of the subproject really is a separate
project in its own right with its own dstart, end, resources, budget, etc.
