Full Task Names in Rports Such as To-Do Lists

Unfortunately the project plan is coming from our corporate headquarters and
our efforts to convince them to do what you've suggested has fallen on deaf
ears. Hence my desire to find a technical solution within Project.

Cost Loaded Schedule

Posted: 03 Nov 2005 06:09 PM PST

Hello Mike,

Thanks for responding.

Column 1 has no formula, I want it to accept my scheduled value for the task.

Column 2: I want it to accept a decimal number to represent the % complete.

Column 3: I used the buttons in the dialog box to enter: column 1 x coulmn
2. It looks like this: [scheduled value]*[ % complete]. Basically it is field
1 x field 2.

Column 4: I want it to accept a number for the previous month's billing for
that task.

Column 5 looks like this: [Total complete to date]-[previous application for
payment]

For clarification the items in [ ] are the field names. I used/renamed the
fields Number1,2,3,4,5 and added them to the standard Gantt Chart view. I put
in 25,000 in coulmn 1 and .35 in column 2 and nothing calculated in column 3.

Hope this helps you help me.

Thanks again.

Regards,

Bernie

Hope you can help.

Thank you - that is what is happening. It is an enterprise project stored in

Nikolas,
Well, the simple answer is yes - lay in the tasks individually. But, I
don't think that's the answer you are looking for.

One of my suggestions was for a non-linked version. That meets your
request of "not (a) or (b)". Other than that however, I don't have any
further suggestions. Sometimes you just have to go with what is
available.

It WILL NOT EVER work. Properties of a summary task are NOT automatically
applied to sub-tasks. Project doesn't work like that.
Further, the group summary is not really a summary task at all. It is just a
header in the display.

Display Duration in hours?

Posted: 03 Nov 2005 04:35 AM PST

You can change the settings fro the Options/Schedule section to display
future duratiosn in hrs. But the macro would be needed to convet any
previous durations in the form of days to hours.

Martin,
My error, yes I did mean SR-1. Project 2003 identifies the first update
as SP1. However, when I ran my tests I was using Project 2000, just so
we would be looking at the same version.

Thanks for answering my questions directly. Unfortunately I find that
many people either don't answer at all or only give partial answers.

Your description of trying the Work field almost sounds like you are
looking at Baseline Work because that's exactly how it will act.
However, that idea doesn't apply for % Complete because there is no
baseline value for % Complete.

If you need to desensitize your file for sending, I can send you a
desensitize macro or you can find an equivalent version on fellow MVP,
Jack Dahlgren's webstie at: http://masamiki.com/project/macros.htm
Jack's macro is called "scrub". You shouldn't need the whole file
(although sometimes size DOES matter). As long as the problem still
shows up with just a single Summary Line and subtasks, that's all I need
for review.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your note. As noted (I believe) in my original request, I had
tried all of those suggestions, except I did not reinstall. I guess I wanted
to make sure that it was a feature of Project 2002 Standard Edition before
trying to reinstall it. Item 46 does not mention any different editions.

JAY,
Just an adjunct to what Gerard suggested. An export maps works fine for
static data but it will not work for timescaled data. For that there are
basically two choices - either use VBA or and SQL query directly on the
Project database. For information on the Project database structure,
search your hard drive for the following file (or something similar
depending on what version of Project you are using):
projdb.htm

Hope this helps.

Enterprise Customer Fields

Posted: 02 Nov 2005 12:37 PM PST

Hello Julie,
Try this one :
IIf([Baseline Finish]=ProjDateValue('NA');"No
Baseline";IIf(ProjDateDiff([Baseline Finish];[Finish])/480>=5;"Late by more
than 5 days";IIf(ProjDateDiff([Baseline Finish];[Finish])/480>0;"late";"On
schedule")))

It work for me.

Hi Owl37,

Did you run the wgsetup.exe file? See help in MS Project for "Work group
messaging" and view information on setting up the email system for
collaboration with the team.

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

Help with creating a filter for Notes field - test/value to use to check for presence of content

Posted: 02 Nov 2005 04:08 AM PST

Sorry! I gave the answer fo ra formula and not a filter!
(Reading diagonally can seriously harm one's credibility)
Still, I now tried several things and I the use of a formula is the only way
I can find.
So it's a two-step exercice.
First, through Tools, Customize, Fields, customize a number field (f.i.
Number1)
with the formula:
Len([Notes])
Then make a filter for

Number1 does not equal 0

That does it.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
