Try to show only tasks that contain the text 'Export'

Posted: 06 Jan 2006 05:58 AM PST

Hi Greg,

You are very welcome for the assistance and thanks for the feedback.

To show tasks with either a Task Name containing "Export" OR Tasks assigned
to Tom:
Try:
First Row: Name equals *export*
Second Row: OR Resource Names equals *Tom*

To show only tasks containing Export AND assigned to Tom:
First Row: Name equals *export*
Second Row: AND Resource Names equals *Tom*

If there are no tasks containing the word export that are assigned to Tom,
the filter will return no records.

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

Customising Timescale labels

Posted: 06 Jan 2006 05:45 AM PST

Hi Tommo,

No, I know of no way to change the labelling. However, If you select one of
the day or nigh calendar to show in nonworking time as I suggested, the
Gantt will be shaded to show that shift's nonworking time. That's the best
I can offer.

MS Project Linked to MS Access Database

Posted: 06 Jan 2006 05:43 AM PST

Julie:

Found it. So let me see if I understand what I read â€" the "Project
database" to which the page refers â€" this can be an Access database, correct?
It seems from what I read on PJDB.HTM that if I make changes to the Project
files they'll automatically update the Project database. Can this be done
with an existing Access database? In other words, do I have to create an
entirely new Project database, or can I add updatable MS Project data to an
existing Access database?

Hope that made sense...

graphical calender option

Posted: 05 Jan 2006 07:01 PM PST

Hi Pete,

You don't need to drag around the bars for a recurring task. Make sure you
enter the time of day along with the date in the Recurring Task dialog.

Do I need Project server?

Posted: 05 Jan 2006 05:15 PM PST

Rod, thank you for the response.

I'll do some searching on the web to look for addons.

Can I sent up Project to use Outlook's calendar function to reserve resource
time in a resource's calendar and then have Project send a meeting notice
update if the project engineer moves the timing for task?

Resource Name in Gantt Chart

Hi,

Yes you could create a formula in a text field and show that one; see
Format, Bar Styles.

Global Resource

Posted: 05 Jan 2006 12:51 PM PST

There are several ways to do what your looking for but for a short and quick
way is to create a new Master Project. Do not put any tasks in this project
just link in all the projects that you want to compare resources on. Then
without any recalculations look at the resource views. It should show your
the allocation for a resource across all the projects within the Master.

Some people will disagree with this method but it is short an easy.

Resource Usage View - no longer works in 2006 (Project 2002)

Posted: 05 Jan 2006 11:26 AM PST

I was hoping it would be a corruption problem, and didn't know how to fix. I
tried to correct using the instructions you provided (and even a couple other
formats) and the same result occurs. This actually happend with all Resource
reporting views.

Changing availability -> automatic recalculation of task duration

Posted: 05 Jan 2006 10:50 AM PST

It recalculates the remaining work and leaves the actuals alone.
Project recalculates PLANS, it does not re-write history.
That is the prerogative of kings and rulers :-))

Information about Projects themselves - not the detail.

duzby --

Since you are already using Project Server, why don't you create a couple of
custom enterprise Project fields to show the priority and commentary for
each project, and then create a custom Project Center view in PWA containing
those two custom fields? You could even use graphical indicators in the
priority field. Just a thought. Hope this helps.

what do i do if ive lost my cd key code

Posted: 04 Jan 2006 02:46 PM PST

Neil,
Your vendor should have a record of the software installed on the PC, from
that you should be able to retrieve the key.

However if the s/a was NOT pre-installed or supplied, then try your luck
with MS.
