Posted: 30 Jun 2004 08:20 PM PDT Hi Rob, Sure any file can contain a toolbar... but I never succeeded in SHOWING one that isn't present in the Global as well -- Jan De Messemaeker Microsoft Project Most Valuable Professional http://users.online.be/prom-ade/index.htm 32-495-300 620 "Rob Schneider" <net.net> schreef in bericht news:#phx.gbl...

Posted: 30 Jun 2004 07:02 PM PDT Rob, You are correct. Project tracks time to the minute and it is certainly configurable (limited) via the Tools/Options tab into hours etc. It becomes more of a problem during levelling or resolving resource over allocations. A problem that could be (easily?) resolved if during levelling it was possible to force project, via a preference setting, to adjust the duration to the nearest 15 minutes. The transport from Project into the external accounting system is a manual process at present. The significance is having project and the accounting systems balance. Have tried the creation of durations in a spreadsheet and copy/paste into project....but once levelling etc is done I get the same result. What I do is after I finalise a baselined project, then manually adjust the duration allocation via the Task Usage for each resource - okay for small projects but an absolute nightmare for large projects. Even more so when updating the plan with actuals. The only other thought I have been "entertaining" is to write a VB script to do this.....but I would prefer not. recall.

Posted: 30 Jun 2004 12:23 PM PDT Right mouse click on the column header to see "hide" column. As you do that, notice just above that menu is the "insert" column command.

Posted: 30 Jun 2004 08:20 AM PDT Hi Joe, If you are using the Standard version of 2000, upgrading to 2003 Standard is simple :) If you're talking about the Professional version and integrating with servers - that's a real task - in which case, try posting on the server newsgroup. (Please see FAQ Item: 24. Project Newsgroups.) FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at this web address: http://www.mvps.org/project/.

Problem using Access to update Project Posted: 28 Jun 2004 04:42 PM PDT OK. I printed all the 75 pages. But I'm a newbie in Project trying to access a project mpp file via access. In Access, how can I open this file? Sds, Decio "Rod Gill" <com> escreveu na mensagem news:#phx.gbl... description |
