| Graphical indicator field to reflect constraint type Posted: 07 Jun 2005 06:48 PM PDT Hello, Wendy. The Constraint Type is a numeric field. 0 = As soon as possible 1 = As late as possible 2 = Must start on 3 = Must finish on 4 = Start no earlier than 5 = Start no later than 6 = Finish no earlier than 7 = Finish no later than Use one of the custom number fields (Number1, Number2, ...), setting it to be equal to the field Constraint Type (the formula is just that: [Constraint Type]) and to use the graphical indicators. Using the examples in your post, 0 = indicator green 7 = indicator blue ... Hope this helps. Cheers, Joaquim Amado Lopes On Tue, 7 Jun 2005 18:48:01 -0700, wendyB <microsoft.com> wrote: |
| Problems With Microsoft Project 2003 Trial Version Posted: 07 Jun 2005 05:51 PM PDT I went to Number 6 Trial Booting. It suggested that I: try modifying registry key: HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1661544484-239356022-623648099-500\Software\Microsoft\Office\8.0\MSProject\Option s\General. Change value of FirstBoot from "No" to "Yes". I went to regedit. I do not have the folder cited above. The closest I have are 2 folders that start with HKEY_USERS\S-1-15-21-3935143360. Thanks in advance for all of your assistance! I also am getting the gbui trusted site issues since I have deleted that from Internet Explorer trusted sites. I now have to go Task Manager in order to exit the Project application. "Brian K - Project MVP" wrote: |

| Gantt Chart different than Resource Usage Posted: 07 Jun 2005 01:58 PM PDT Thanks for your response - each task has only one resource assigned. -- Keith Loewen, MBA, PMP "Brian K - Project MVP" wrote: |
| Posted: 07 Jun 2005 12:16 PM PDT Yes it will. But your only other choice is to find a copy of the schedule before you made any updates, baseline it correctly and then update it to match your current schedule. Sometimes the best you can do is just start now and ignore any water that has already passed under the bridge. -- -Jack ...

| Printing Gantt timescale in MSP 2000 Posted: 06 Jun 2005 06:15 AM PDT John: Thanks for the reply. On a technical note, I had a typo in my post and am running MSP2002. To get to your point, I have a fluid range in both the middle and lower tier- years then quarters- no skipping. It appears to be scaled adequately, but basically just shows blank cells when I print. I can see the spaces that would hold text, but they are not populated. I have since tested the file on other PC's at my office and it works fine- I can see the dates in the timescale, so it is a setting on my PC, I just cannot for the life of me figure out which one it is.

| allow highschool students to get educational discounts Posted: 05 Jun 2005 09:46 AM PDT I hope the person who first asked this question is following this thread. If not, maybe someone can find a way to get this information to them. As a student, they can get the standalone version of Project for $70 at www.journeyed.com. They have to provide proof of the fact that they are a student (or teacher). They can also get almost any other major software package at a large discount at this site. Ken Wright wrote: |
| Order of details under Resource in Who does What Report Posted: 04 Jun 2005 03:34 AM PDT Hi Margaret als, Glad to know the tip I gave worked well for you and thanks so much for the feedback. As far as protocol for newsgroups posting, I think this newsgroup is pretty flexible. (Not all newsgroups are.) I usually post my replies at the top (sometimes called "top posting") just because I think it is easier to follow the "conversation" in the post that way. Others post at the bottom. As far as deleting earlier threads in the conversation, I usually delete earlier portions if they are not "important" (in my opinion) to the current posting. I usually delete it just to make download a bit quicker - particularly for folks on a dial-up connection. Again, thanks for the feedback and let us know if you have any further questions.

| Work schedule progress question Posted: 03 Jun 2005 12:44 PM PDT Why would they object to your posting accurate information into the file? If Joe Resource was scheduled to wax the widgets on July 1st but actually got some of it done last week, shouldn't your file reflect that? Save a baseline before posting the progress and it will show what you'd planned so you can monitor actual versus planned if anybody asks. But progress by definition is what actually takes place and after it's done what you originally thought would take place is irrelevant. Seems like if you base your progress inputs on what actually happens, the calculations in the summary bars will be exactly what your bosses are asking you for. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer & Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "Tomcat" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... |

| where can I find a manual for Project 2003 Posted: 03 Jun 2005 10:28 AM PDT There are, of course, 3rd party manuals if you're willing to pay. I think Tim Pyron's Que manual "Using Project 200x" are the most complete and written by someone who knows Project Management. Unlike some of the other manuals, particularly the MS ones. For a simpler, less detailed one, I reccommend "MS Project for Dummies". Best of luck! JackD wrote: |
| How do I change cells with #### in Project? Posted: 03 Jun 2005 09:02 AM PDT Joe -- I'm certain Jenna's question was no joke. This question is asked more frequently than you would probably believe and is generally a "newbie" question from someone who doesn't use Excel. Her question was more than appropriate for this group. Your response, however, was totally inappropriate. -- Dale A.
