Posted: 07 Jun 2004 01:26 PM PDT use print screen thats gonna work. and the Gantt chart. (I think this answers your question). I have tried to use the Copy Picture to Office Wizard, but when I get to the part where I choose Power Point, or another application, and portrait or landscape, it doesn't let me select anything...nothing gets chosen when I click on it. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better way to do this besides Copy Picture to Office Wizard? Thanks. |
formatting a MS Project task row in the Gantt chart? Posted: 07 Jun 2004 08:45 AM PDT No, there's no way to format cells even using filters! Ask Microsoft :) Mike Glen Project MVP microsoft.com wrote: |

Posted: 07 Jun 2004 05:48 AM PDT Many thanks Dale. Do you know whether Project has the facilty on the timesheet for a resource (user) to enter the ammount of time there is to complete per task on a timesheet? Meaning that a task length in a project can shorten or lengthen depending on the feedback from the resource (assuming the project manager approves the timesheet). Thanks, Andy |
Where Does Project Server Data Get Stored Posted: 05 Jun 2004 03:58 PM PDT ----- Ken Popkin wrote: ---- I would like to know the following 1. When I used SQL's Enterprise Manager to look at the underlying databas I was surprised to find six project server databases labeled ProjectServer ProjectServer2185, ProjectServer6028, ProjectServer6405, ProjectServer9232 and ProjectServer9880. Why are there six project server databases and whic one is storing the data That means, the Project server was installed several times already. (install, uninstall, install, uninstall ... If you did it in one, you should only have "ProjectServer" 2. What tables are being used to store the data. I looked in MSP_Resource and MSP_Projects, but didn't find any of my data It's a relational database. Data for one project are spread in several tables 3. Are there any write-ups that explain the database schema There's a link somewhere that documents the DB schema in visio format. Haven't found an explanation yet either 4. The reason I am asking is that we may want to write some of our ow stored procedures to extract data. Is this a good approach or should stick with the API's that are mentioned in the documentation It's best to go with API's rather than a direct link to the database Thanks in advance for your help Ken -- rom flore PSS |

change contraint default - Project Professional 2002 Posted: 04 Jun 2004 02:56 PM PDT The constraint "SNET" being applied automatically is usually a result of specifying a start date for a task. A basic purpose of Project is to calculate the task schedule for you, given the project start date, task durations, and task linkages, and as such you should never, ever input individual task start and end dates except in those rare circumstances where you really do intend to have a constraint applied. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer/Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "markel" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... "Start no earlier than" on it. Does anyone know how I can change this default to a contraint of "As soon as possible". |
Inserting material / tooling costs Posted: 04 Jun 2004 01:58 PM PDT Hi Doug, Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-) There is a Fixed Cost field for just this type of costing. Insert a column and select Fixed Cost or, better, View/Table:Entry/Cost.

Posted: 04 Jun 2004 10:16 AM PDT Spiro T -- In the sample DB, the Project Server administrator created an additional Version called Target, which probably serves as the original "agreed upon" version of the project before beginning work. The Published version is always the current production copy of the project. Your Project Server administrator could create one or more Versions in your own envrionment, based on the communication and tracking needs of your organization. If no custom Versions are created, then the only available project Version will be the Published version. Hope this helps. -- Dale A.

Posted: 04 Jun 2004 08:36 AM PDT Hi Majid, In a template, the start date is immaterial. When you open the template, immediately Save As... and give it a new name. Then run the Adjust_Dates macro to enter the new project's start date.

Work before project actually starts Posted: 04 Jun 2004 08:06 AM PDT another consideration would be the effect of the planning phase to the project itself If planning does not affect the duration, task list and cost of the project, you may incorporate it without any problems If it does, you may want to divide it -- rom flore |

Posted: 03 Jun 2004 04:56 PM PDT Hi Donna, I don't really understand what you're trying to do :( I don't know what you mean by getting the number to balance - what number? and balance with what? You assign a resource to the task to undertake the necessary work to finish the task - you can't fiddle that - it must have a number of manhours of work to complete. You can't adjust the number of hours as the work might not be completed in that time. As to your final comment, if you enter 50 manhours of work, Project will work out the cost based on how you've set up the parameters of working time and calendars. Can you be more specific on what you're trying to achieve and how you are doing it? Mike Glen Project MVP Donna wrote: |
Posted: 03 Jun 2004 04:17 AM PDT Do you have resources assigned to those summary tasks? If so that will seriously distort the work values, thus BCWS. With only one exception that I can think of offhand, one should never assign resources to summary tasks. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer/Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "Paul Lemke" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:17c1c01c4495c$4e62e760$gbl... |
