You're welcome Neal and thanks for the feedback. (The option to make the
Project Summary Task appear always has long been on my list of wishes.)

Yikes!!! It is really a bad idea to have this kind of thing going on
against Project's tables. you are pretty lucky that it did not really
up your project.

You would be best served enforcing these rules within an application level
VBA event.

This shows how to use these events. The example here looks at changes and
asks for a password but you can change the code to your own needs.

Jack,
As usual you are right. I just didn't look closely enough at that
possibility. To verify my answer I used a file that had the custom
fields renamed and I assumed that is what Steve had also. Bad assumption.

Working with Customized fields

Posted: 13 Oct 2005 06:32 AM PDT

Brian is absolutely correct. Custom field formulas can only reference the
task they are based on. You can't reference other tasks.

And he is right that I have some code for this. Check out the "Ready to
Start" macro here:

You need to adjust the 80% to 100%, but it sounds like it does what you are
asking.

Issue with FF and SS external dependencies

Posted: 12 Oct 2005 09:38 PM PDT

Hi Brian,

We have the issue even if the dates have not changed. If the PM creates the
link, saves the schedule and immediately reopens it, he/she gets the dialog
box.
Again, this issue is for FF and SS links only. For FS links it works fine.

Thanks for the reply.

No the template is not in a project file. It is an enterprise template.

Installing MS Project trial version

Hi Justin and ed1671,

Sorry the only further advise I can suggest would be to order the trial CD
from Microsoft. The information is in the link below.

Hope this helps.

Mark --

In the future, please post your Project Server questions to the
microsoft.public.project.server newsgroup, as this newsgroup is devoted to
the use of only the Microsoft Project desktop application.

To answer your questions, team members are not added to the project's
SharePoint subweb until they have been assigned to at least one task in the
project. This is by design and it is how the system is supposed to work.
Hope this helps.

Assigning resources at the summary level

Robert,
This issue has been brought up many times in this newsgroup. You can do
a search on the subject and get all kinds of opinions. Generally,
linking to Summary Lines is a bad idea because the user needs to be
extremely diligent and careful to avoid two major pitfalls. The first is
creation of circular relationships. The second is unexpected changes in
the schedule (i.e. normal links on performance tasks are fairly easy to
see and predict but Summary Line links can cause some "sneaky" things to
happen). If you are familiar with circuit ysis in electronics,
Summary Line links are like sneak circuit paths.

If you have successfully used links on Summary Lines in the past, you
are either extremely lucky or very cognizant of their quirks.

Removing duration from the calendar view

Dave,
To be honest, I don't know. I never use the Calendar view but playing
with it a little it might be possible to do what you want but it
certainly won't be pretty (i.e. very readable). What I ended up doing is
to set up a separate 1 day task on the Finish date of each task. Then I
filtered the view so only the one day tasks were visible. Finally I set
the Format/Bar Styles for a line bar type (noncritical task). Like I
said, not very "pretty".

Project isn't all that flexible when it comes to presenting the data in
certain ways and the Calendar view is one of them.
