Ken,
Something sounds a little off base. If the user selected a task, how can
it be blank? Yes, I guess they could inadvertently select a blank line
but then why would they go ahead and run the macro?

Depending on what the macro is designed to do, I can envision the user
selecting a task from a task type view (e.g. Gantt Chart) or an
assignment in the Resource Usage view or perhaps a task in the Task
Usage view. These are all valid task selections and can be handled in
the code. The user will never select a task in a pure resource type of
view, such as the Resource Sheet, because there are no tasks in a pure
resource view?

Although I understand that users can sometimes do some "unconventional"
things and therefore a good set of controlled error traps in code is
well advised, but from what you have explained, the need for error traps
isn't all that apparent.

2 Questions

Hi Rolands67,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-)

I suggest you insert a Number column. Then, in Excel, create a column and
put 1 in the first cell, 2 in the second, highlight them both and click and
drag the fill handle to produce a column of sequential numbers. Then
copy/paste into the project number column.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: <http://www.mvps.org/project/>

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :-))

how long will take me to complete Project self-learning?

Posted: 24 Jan 2005 09:31 AM PST

I've been using Project for about 10 years and training for about 18 years.
I figure it's only within the last 5 years I began to truly understand the
way Project is best used to manage projects but then my BS degree includes
an economics minor to help relate the theory to the software.

If your goal is to become a trainer in MS Project, unlike other Office
applications like Word for example, learning the software inside and out is
only the starting point. You simply must understand WHY it acts the way it
does as well as understanding what it does and how it does it. As I like to
put it, you don't need to be a professional writer to understand everything
there is to know about Word but you do need to understand the discipline of
formal project manager to go beyond the bare basics with Project.

What the difference between the hexagon and octogon boxes in an M.

Posted: 24 Jan 2005 08:13 AM PST

I just looked. The "rounded" corner one is actually an octagon, but the
angled sides are fairly small.
There is no inherent significance to any of the shapes. You can set the
style however you want.
You will have to ask the author of the file what the meaning is.

Repair a damaged or corrupt MS Project 2002 file?

Posted: 24 Jan 2005 06:29 AM PST

Hi Susan,

You may wish to remove the link between the corrupted project file and your
new file. Double click on the Inserted Project summary task and on the
Advanced tab remove the check from the Link to project checkbox. This will
give you a copy of the tasks from the corrupted project but will break the
link eliminating the need for both copies.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Project Resources \ Splitting Resources

Posted: 24 Jan 2005 04:33 AM PST

One thing you need to double check right away is the way you are
interpretting the resource assignment percentage. If I have a resource
assigned 40%, that means he's producing the equivalent of 40% of the total
duration in man-hours, NOT that he's doing 40% of the total work required on
the task. In your example it happens to work out the same but it is by no
means universal that it will.

Essentially you are asking Project to exhibit a mixture of non-effort driven
and effort driven behaviors. AFAIK, that'll either have to be done by hand
or though VB.

How do I set up 7 days a week in Project?

Posted: 24 Jan 2005 04:17 AM PST

Additionally, if you are assigning resources to the tasks (not sure exactly
what you mean when you say that you 'don't care about resource loading'),
you will need to go into the resource sheet and change all of the resources'
base calendars and these do not automatically change when you choose a
calendar other than standard under project / project info.

unknown cab file required

Posted: 23 Jan 2005 04:37 PM PST

Cab files are loaded on your computer when you update your software. It is
not on any disks. It is how the computer determines what updates you've had
and what you need. You need to clean up the windows installer. Go to
Microsoft.com and look for Windows Installer Cleanup. The actual program is
msicuu.exe. Most likely you removed a program but didn't completely clean it
up and when trying to reinstall, the new program is looking for the cab
file. Load the cleanup program and remove the offending file. I just went
through this when I was having trouble removing Office and then removed it
in a roundabout way and couldn't get it to work after reinstalling.

First off, my condolences for downgrading to WinXP. You should really
rethink this as it will be nothing but a big headache.

However, depending on the OS you came from your registry is fscked up. (Not
that is isn't to begin with.)

WinXP will have no idea about what apps you have running. You'll need to
reinstall Office or upgrade to OpenOffice.

Since this is a Project group, you'll need to reinstall that, too.
