| Schedule from (date) in master project Posted: 23 Mar 2005 04:53 PM PST Hi Leslie, I cannot give a definitive answer, but I suspect the scheduelling from start of the Master is trying to overrule the individual schedule from finish projects. It can only truly reflect the state of the Master when all the sub-projects are open as, until you open the subprojects, it hasn't the data to complete any calculatons. I always recommend that all sub-projects are opened when you're working on a Master file as this will ensure all work will be propagated downwards. Mike Glen Project MVP LeslieF wrote: |

| Posted: 23 Mar 2005 10:57 AM PST Dima -- You should NEVER purchase Microsoft Project for team members, unless you want total chaos. Team members and executives should use PWA for their project work, while project managers should use both Microsoft Project Professional and PWA for their work. I don't have the time to answer your question in detail, therefore, for a list of features in PWA you should refer to the following link: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/FX010857951033.aspx Hope this helps. -- Dale A.

| Manual Box Positioning on network diagram Posted: 23 Mar 2005 10:17 AM PST Thanks Mike. It only happens in this particular project. I have other projects (separate files actually) and it works fine. I just updated from project 2002 to 2003 one week ago and it is the first time I open up this project, so I wonder if something on the file is not liked by 2003... I'm going to try to open the file in another PC with Project 2002 to see what it does. Ivan "Mike Glen" wrote: |

| How do I change the color of text in a Gantt? Posted: 23 Mar 2005 08:27 AM PST In article <com>, Dave S <microsoft.com> wrote: Dave, No you're not missing anything other than perhaps an "outside of the box" approach. If the text on the right is red, all the text on the right is red. However what I was suggesting is a little different. I suggested that the tasks bum17 wanted to highlight could have an entry in a spare text field. I suggested a spare text field so he/she could enter special text that was not dependent on other text for the task (e.g. Task Name). Then set the color of text on one side of the Gantt bar to whatever highlight color is desired and display the contents of the spare text field on that side. Only those tasks that have an entry in the spare text field will show the highlighted color. The bottom line is it can be done, but . . . the method I suggest may not be convenient. John |
| How do I manage multiple Jobs in a single project worksheet? Posted: 23 Mar 2005 08:19 AM PST Hi, The most simple advice I generally give on this matter is: If your projects have to be managed by more than one person, you need multiple files. If not, use a single file. It is 100 times simpler.

| Posted: 23 Mar 2005 07:35 AM PST In article <com>, "SL" <microsoft.com> wrote: SL, First your post doesn't mention anything about linkages between the subtasks. Since you are expecting dates to move I will assume the 3 subtasks are linked in the default (i.e. finish-to-start). Given the above assumption there are a couple of ways to get what you want. Probably the easiest is to use "reverse scheduling". Go to Project/Project Information. Set the "Schedule from" option to the Project Finish Date. Then enter the desired Start Date of subtask 3. Reverse scheduling will ensure that all tasks start as late as possible even though the Constraint Type field shows "as-soon-as-possible". Therefore, when you constrain the third subtask to start on a particular date, all the other tasks will move to accommodate that date. Hope this helps. John Project MVP |
