Task Start on a Specific Day of Week

Posted: 31 Mar 2005 12:15 PM PST

Hi John,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

Create a milestone task and link it between the 2 tasks in a chain. Then
create a new calendar where the only working day is the one you want. Now
assign the milestone to that new Task calendar.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at

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

Where is ProjDateDiff????

Posted: 31 Mar 2005 10:17 AM PST

Thanks, Jan - that did the trick. Just out of curiosity, if
ProjDateDiff does not exist in VBA, where are all of the folks who
write about it call it from?

Cheers
Dave

How do I remove the request snyc with protected actuals error box.

Lisa --

When you import projects with actuals into a Project Server environment that
uses Managed Time Periods, you must ask your Project Server administrator to
disable this function before importing your projects. After you import each
project, you should publish the project using Collaborate - Publish - All
Information, and then republish the assignments using Collaborate -
Publish - Republish Assignments and check the "Overwrite actual work entered
by resources" option. The republishing of assignments detailed here
"pushes" your past actuals onto each user's timesheet in PWA. After
importing your projects, your Project Server administrator should re-enable
the Managed Time Periods option. Hope this helps.

Task for the entire duration of the project

Posted: 30 Mar 2005 09:24 AM PST

I don't recall having tried it on the different types of tasks. Has
work already been completed on this task? If so, that might effect
making it into a hammock task. I'm not at a computer where I have
Project installed, so I can't test it out. Someone else probably can.
I'm pretty confident that on a task with 0% complete, it will work on
any task.

can project predict percent complete values?

Posted: 30 Mar 2005 08:13 AM PST

FYI - "% Complete" in Project ALWAYS refers to duration. Work is "% Work
Complete" and there is also a "% Physical Complete" field available if you
wish to use it. "% Complete" and "% Work Complete" are usually linked so
that updating one updates the other but there is an option setting to sever
the link if one chooses. % Complete predicted for a task on a certain
status date could be calculated from duration that should be completed by
that date divided by the total duration but for the life of me I can't see
what information that number gives you or what use such a number would be in
terms of managing and tracking the project.

Change the view on the task details form in MP 2003

Posted: 30 Mar 2005 07:11 AM PST

Too bad it can't be customized.

The details form in my MP2003 does not have the actual and baseline info.
It only shows the plan start and finish. I am not familiar with the
optionbutton. Where I find it?

I have dabbled in VBA, so I would have to read up on how to create my own
form. Any pointers you can give me?

Outline level vs Predecessor

Posted: 30 Mar 2005 06:15 AM PST

I missed your earlier post - is the problem that you don't want to see
subtasks indented? Or what?
