Task Type Differences

Hi Jack, thanks for your response.

I understand the formula involved, but I guess I still don't see why or when
you would ever need to use a Fixed Work task. It is effort driven anyway so
why worry with it?

Do you have an example you could use?

Thanks

Drop down menu in Project 2002

It sounds like someone turned on AutoFilter in your Microsoft Project. To
get rid of those autofilter drop-down arrows, simply click the AutoFilter
button on the Formatting toolbar. The icon on the button looks like a
funnel. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I didn't think so, but I had to make absolutely sure.

pick-your-year series the best. It's complete and accurate. That would
be for use as a reference. If you want a step-by-step book a little
easier to read (and a lot shorter) I'd go with MS Project for Dummies.
Hope this helps in your world.

Keeping dates for inserted file after link is broken

Posted: 14 Sep 2005 02:34 PM PDT

Hi John,
All great questions.
First, I am assuming that the supporting team schedule is leveled because
there is no indicator that a constraint has forced the dates. The creator of
the schedule is on vacation and sent the schedule at the 11th hour with no
detail around how it was created.
I do not want a static copy of the schedule inserted. I want it to be active
tasks in the plan that I can track to. The owner of the plan works in a
different office and thought it would be easier just to provide his own plan.
There lies the underlying problem. There was no communication about the
standards that should have been used to establish his schedule (i.e.
calendar, working hours, etc.).
The resource assigned to all of the tasks in the scheduled I'd like to add
has already been assigned to other tasks already in the master schedule that
were added on behalf of that same team - this additional schedule is like a
second bucket of work that the resource will be working on next... The
existing tasks she is assigned to should be complete before she started this
next bucket of work which should nicely waterfall. However, when I remove the
link to the inserted project or I paste the tasks in, these new tasks are
being scheduled before and around the existing tasks.

I apologize for the interchanging use of plan and schedule. They mean one in
the same in this context.

Thanks.

Multiple Resources assigned to a single task

And the obvious,

Do the resources have exactly the same calendar?

The new resource is not suspect to an autoleveling
situation and upon substitution is recalculated to
overcome allocations.

Substitute resources function - question

Jan, when server assigns names, do you know if it assign names smartly as not
to over allocate resources too?

The only thing I can think of is that these tasks are Marked. Show the
Marked column and see if the summary tasks in question are marked (have a
Yes in the Marked column). If so, they will display using the "Marked Task"
style as defined in Format-Text Styles.
