What Project version to upgrade to?

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 11:01 AM PST

Adding to Jack's excellent response - not only is the dealer giving you
incorrect information, if he tries to convince you to buy the 50% more
expensive Project Professional instead of Project Standard "because it has
more features" or some such, that too would be incorrect. Unless you
specifically have Project Server installed in your network, the
functionality of the Standard and Professional versions are identical.

Custom field inforamtion to be limitted to the summary line only.

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 11:01 AM PST

Don't use a date field. Use a text field.
You can have dates or numbers or whatever in a text field. Project still
recognizes them as dates or numbers or whatever.

Project 2003 won't stay activated

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 10:40 AM PST

Is this the full retail version or the evaluation version? Curious because
phone activation isn't available for eval software.

MCP certification?

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 09:31 AM PST

Hi Steve,

I agree, I wouldn't be surprise to see MS stop the certication for Project
as I doubt it is one of their top money makers. I also believe that as MS has
not created a certification for MSP2003 it is a further sign they are backing
away from the MOS for Project. It would be nice if MS either confirmed or
denied the rumors.....

That being said, I was able to get to the page link I gave to Bill directly
off the Microsoft Office Specialist page under "requirements" and found the
links on the page dealing directly with MSP did work. It did take some
digging, but frankly there are few pieces of the MS site that don't ;-).

How do I calculate EST, EFT, LST, and LFT in MSP?

Posted: 27 Feb 2005 11:29 AM PST

Hi Tony,

View the Schedule table applied to the task sheet to view Late Start and
Late Finish as well as Free and Total Slack. You may insert the Early Start
and Early Finish into the table if desired. (Insert>Column).

Any or all of the fields may also be inserted into any task table view.

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

How do I get custom enterprise fields to show up in Task Informat.

Posted: 26 Feb 2005 01:35 PM PST

New Project Manager --

You don't get it. If you want to enter custom information for tasks, you
must create a custom enterprise TASK field. Entering a custom enterprise
Project field is no good to you for tasks. Hope this helps.

How do I set a reminder in Project 2003?

Posted: 26 Feb 2005 09:55 AM PST

So, if I understand what your saying is that I set an additional task, a
"ring contractor" in advance of the start of the task needing the
notification and setting the start dependency the required number of days????

Is there anyway to send an outlook task notification so that when Outlook
starts it will show a "To Do" task which is to call XXX for a start date of
YYY? Here I want the outlook to notify me or another team member not the
contractor.

Thanks
Mike

Hi

recommend that you post to microsoft.public.word.newusers
including version & SR numbers (from help / about menu within word)
and any other information that could be relevant, ie have you recently
upgraded your version of word / bought a new printer / installed other
software between when Word used to print and now.

Start to Start dependency

Posted: 25 Feb 2005 07:26 PM PST

The predecessor has a one day lag????? What do you mean by that?
Predecessors don't have lag times, successors do. If the link between task
A and task B has a 1 day lag time, task B will start one day later than the
link would otherwise place it.

Hi DonnaJ,

You have posted to a newsgroup specifically for Microsoft Project, a project
scheduling software. You may have better luck posting to a newsgroup about
Outlook.

Templates for Legal Profession

Posted: 25 Feb 2005 10:04 AM PST

Steve, thanks - your expert opinion that I probably will not find any
standard templates is what I needed to know. While it is true that law firms
and cases are unique, firms have areas of specialty(or lines of business).
Within each line there is a process and a set of documentation that needs to
be generated. My initial effort relates to commercial litigation and will
involve two templates. The first template will use generic resources and
provide a prospective client a time and cost breakdown. This is an
improvement over "it could take years and cost millions". The second
template will update the generic tasks/resources with actuals and provide
firm management a tool to track large litigation efforts.

I did make a copy and re-enter the recurring task and it worked out fine.
I'll let you know if the owner of the workplan has any issues recreating the
