Filters: How to filter all the task relationated with one specified task

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 02:08 PM PST

I have a visual basic macro which does this. Select the task, run the macro
and project filters to show predecessors, successors or both.

Look for the "trace" macro.

Blackout dates in Project 2002

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 01:01 PM PST

Yep. Make a new calendar with the dates, Then select the tasks (hold down
the control key to select multiple tasks) and hit SHIFT+F2 to open the task
dialog box. Go to the advanced tab and set the calendar to the one you want.
This functionality is only available in more recent versions of project. I
think Proj 2000 was the first version to have task calendars, but I may be
wrong.

Custom fields for Header

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 12:39 PM PST

Thanks Mike,

I was finally able to make the toolbar work but I'm not experienced with
XML. It's asking me to use a XSL/T template. Would there be an easy guide
that would help me generate my report.

I need an Enterprise Project Expert

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 08:51 AM PST

To tell the truth, I'm not aware of the existence of an "EPM certification"
as such. If you'll drop me an email (remove the obvious from my return
address) we can get in touch and discuss your needs. I might be able to
help out with general PM issues and MS Project but as I said I'm not a
server guru and don't pretend to offer any expertise in that arena. At any
rate, I'll be happy to discuss your needs with you and if I can't help
myself perhaps I can suggest some other folks who might give you insights on
a Server expert to bring in if that's more your concern.

Exporting All Fields to Excel

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 08:43 AM PST

Jack,

Thanks for responding

I was remiss - I forgot to mention that I am using Proj 2002 Standard..

I'm not aware of a command to disconnect from the resource pool. Do you
know what the command is?

TIA,

Stretch

Visual Basic "File Not Found" error

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 06:17 AM PST

Hi Sandra,

I am sort of having the same exact problem. I have a project plan in 2003
that I sahre with someone else who uses 2000. He gets this error message all
the time also. I do not agree with Gerard, I don't think it has anything to
do with the file being corupted. Using 2003 I have No problems with the
file, it's only a problem in 2000. Let me know if you find solution.

Sorry if it was a bit of a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but it DOES work!

Updating tasks that are on schedule

Posted: 14 Feb 2005 02:32 PM PST

You're seeing the reason there are two fields, the current date and the
status date, instead of just one current date field. The current date is
just that, although perhaps it should really be labeled "effective current
date." The "update work as scheduled" tool does assume you are entering it
as complete THROUGH the end of the current date (probably the assumption is
you would update through last Friday before going home Friday evening, just
before saving the file and shutting down for the day). If you're entering
progress today as it was at the end of the day last Friday, in Project
Information set the current date field to last Friday - I think providing
the ability to easily over-ride the computer's calendar without having to go
into the control panel and really changing it is precisely the resason they
made it an editable field so accessable in the Project Information menu.
The status date is not the date you are updating progress to, it is the date
you are *reporting* progress as of once you've done the updates. Thr status
date defaults to the current date unless you over-ride it but it's function
is different. Today when I come to work I might first update progress
through last Friday (set current date = 10 Feb) and then view the Earned
Value report as of the first of this month (set status date = 31 Jan).

How 2 Format a column selectively

Posted: 14 Feb 2005 12:41 PM PST

Hello Bill,

You can't really a column selectively, but you can display some specific
graphical indicators such as red, yellow or
green lights, but not directly in the Total Slack field :
Insert un Number(x) column, right click its label
Customize field / Formula
[Total Slack]/[Minutes per day] (or something like that : I don't have the
english version in front of me.)
Click the Graphical indicators button
Less than.... 0 ... red light

Hope this helps,

Gérard Ducouret

Multiple projects

Posted: 14 Feb 2005 06:33 AM PST

Julie --- Appreicate your response. If i could ask your favor on another
inquiry on the same subject. I have taken my 8 projects and built a resource
pool.mpp. I am know trying to figure out the best way to extrapolate the
data ( work per task and assigned resource) I need to look at the overall
picture of my projects (1st one starting 2/22/05 and all 8 ending by 12/31).
they all overlap and I am looking for the best way to present to my managment
how we should balance the manpower, who should start when and if we need to
hire additional resources so we can finish by 12/31. What window can help me
view this the best.

thanks a bunch for your help.
