Tasks end-start relation

Posted: 09 Sep 2005 01:26 AM PDT

If you typed a date for this task (not recommended, you should always use
links where at all possible) then the default start time will be 8:15 which
is 15 minutes after the calendar start time. Therefore Project has to
schedule an extra 15 minutes on the next working day to fit 8 hours in.

Set the default start time to 8:00 or better yet use links!

Actual Work vs. Target/Baseline

Posted: 08 Sep 2005 10:37 AM PDT

Hi,

It MUST change because you want the rest of the plan to be based on reality
don't you?
I do.
IMHO Project primarily has to show me a correct future plan, what has
happened before is interesting but not critical.
For my own plans, I often simply delete complete tasks.

Original plan is saved as beseline, so no need to keep it alive as a base
for a (wrong) plan.
Do you have a finish variance? You should.
Can't judge about work because for that I need more data like task type.
There is a resoruce attached to teh task isn'there?

Steve,
First, resources should be managed on the Resource Sheet - that's what
it is for. My guess is that there is some subtle difference between the
two resources, meaning that they are not duplicate in Project's "eye".

Another possibility. You didn't mention whether the file is linked to a
resource pool. If both the pool and the file have a resource named "joe"
then these resources are indeed separate and can, under some
circumstances, both be assigned to a task.

Second, given the above is not the case and you suspect corruption, go
to the MVP website at:

and look at FAQ 43 - File Bloat? - Might be corruption.

Task duration not netting when resources added.

Posted: 07 Sep 2005 01:05 PM PDT

Hi,

When you add resources to a task that has none attached, the task will react
as fixed duration. So even when you add both resources at once the duration
will not change.
To the contrary, when you allocate one resource, enter, then allocate a
second one and when the effort driven option is on (task information,
advanced) duration will adapt.

OR, when you insert the Work column into your task view, and enter the 16
hrs of work BEFORE allocating resoruces, then even if you allocate both at
once duration adapts.

Hi,

I think we agree on 99% of the issue.
I think however that having the simulation done by the software (especially
on multi-project) gives me time for other things: Project levels 100 times
faster than me by hand.

Chris,
Well, everything sounds pretty generic (i.e. default). My last question
about leveling applies to a feature of Project found under
Tools/Resource Leveling. When leveling is activated, it initiates an
algorithm that allows Project to automatically move tasks around (i.e.
shift, delay, split, etc.) to relieve resource conflicts
(overallocation). The default setting is "manual" (i.e. no leveling) but
you might want to check to see if the setting was changed to
"automatic". In the absence of a pure poltergeist (e.g. corruption),
leveling might be germane to the problem you are seeing.

The fact that the problem seemed to "fix itself" while you were out to
lunch (no pun intended), suggests that file corruption may be present.
In that case, go to the MVP website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm
and take a look at FAQ 43 - File Bloat? - Might be corruption

Project to Access Dynamic Link

Posted: 06 Sep 2005 05:17 PM PDT

Rod â€" Thanks for the quick reply; appreciated it. Can I ask for more
information? In a test .mpp file, I Saved As ODBC to MS Access, closed
Project, opened the Access file and changed some information (i.e. file
properties in msp_project table, task names in msp_tasks file, etc.). Then I
closed Access and went back to the Project file and there are no changes
there. I also tried (within the Project file) to Open via ODBC, and was
expecting to get the dialogue box I got when opening exel files asking me if
I want to Open as new file, Append or Merge. It simply opens the Access file
as a new Project.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Cannot remove bold text from Heading 2 titles on document content

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 01:35 PM PDT

How can I remove bold text from Heading 2 titles on content of the document. Normally, all Heading 1 titles are bold on every chapter of the document and not on the content, that's fine. I want to do the same for Heading 2 titles, but they're bold on the content and on the chapters too. How to remove bold text from the content?

Prevent MS Word from creating seperate XML files when saving an HTM file

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 12:27 PM PDT

I use Word to create HTM files for use with PowerShell in emailing reports.  I use word to make it look "pretty" and then use custom tags in the HTM file to replace with key variables from the script, then use the HTM file as the "body" of the email.

When I save the HTM file with word, it creates a whole bunch of seperate XML files that are associated with the main HTM file and stores them in a seperate directory at the same level as the HTM file.  For example if my file is called "emailtemplate.htm" it creates a folder called "emailtemplate_files" and puts all those XML files in there.

This has not really been a problem, but now I want my script to be self updating for my users - so if I update the HTM file at the source, the script does some logic testing when it is run and will copy the new HTM file out to the users directory from where they run a copy of the script.  However, my code is only copying the HTM file - it does not know about the linked XML files and they get skipped.

I am wondering if it is possible to embed all the data in those XML files directly into the HTM file so that I have just ONE file I need to update instead of accounting for all the extra files and directory.  Does any one know how to make Word use just ONE file for the HTM content instead of using all the seperate linked XML files?  I am using Office 2010.

Thanks,

NK

Word 2010 Not Printing Correctly

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 12:03 PM PDT

First of all I am using Windows 8.1 and Word 2010

I have 2 different issues.

1)  After getting my mail merge document together and sending to print it won't print more than 10 pages and then says there's an error and won't print.  It also happens on just a regular document that I'm trying to print more than 10 pages.

2)  After merging a mail merge document and try to print a different document using "Custom Range" printing.  It doesn't print ANYTHING and in the queue it shows a document was sent to print, under the "Pages" section in the queue it says "N/A" and doesn't do anything.

What can I do other than saving my documents on a thumb drive and using my old laptop to print???  It shouldn't be doing this.  It's so frustrating trying to get any work done. 

Linking Word to Excel

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 11:56 AM PDT

I know how to link from Excel to Word, but I want to know how to link from Word to Excel, specifically the page numbers of specific pages.  From there I have a program that links Excel values into AutoCAD to create text in the figures I have created.  I do this a lot, several thousand of times in the AutoCAD file from Excel, but I am not sure how to get the page numbers out automatically so that I don't need to manually check and update 5 minutes before the turn in time.  Making things worse is that page numbers are not static in Word and a change at the beginning of a report may change most of the page numbers.  My current project has 60 figures all with page numbers that could easily change.  I need to link the automatic page numbers from the footers.

Chapter Heading style and Section break

Repeat an element of an unlinked header throughout a document?

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 11:40 AM PDT

Can you repeat some elements of a header in all sections of a document even if the headers are not linked to the previous section?  For example:

Header Section One Title

Client Name

Header Section Two Title

Client Name

Header Section Three Title

Client Name

I intentionally unlink the sections so that each heading can be different for a group of pages but the "Client Name" portion remains the same through the document and has to be updated in multiple sections because it is unlinked.  The users of the document are constantly forgetting to update subsequent sections.  Is there an easy way or hack to only make it necessary to update the Client Name once?

Thank you.

Print Merge Help

Any help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated!

Add Pop Up Box When Word Document Opens to Select Recipient

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 07:57 AM PDT

Hello,

I am updating the Subcontract form my company uses, to automate the process in Microsoft Word 2013 with a Mail Merge.  Our company uses a number of Subcontractors, each with different addresses and Account Codes.  I set up the document, selected the source and added the Merge Fields. 

Is there a way to add a Pop Up Box or Prompt when the document opens, to select which Recipient from the list to use?  I'd like to make this as easy as possible, rather than opening the document, clicking Mailings and then clicking Edit Recipient List.  Please let me know if there is some way to accomplish this.

how to get the very file selected the moment I click Open File Location?

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 06:55 AM PDT

this is a universal prob for Office 2007+ series, but a detailed selection of topic is compulsory.

it's so very annoying when you have numerous files in that very file location, you should waste so much time on looking for the file you've opened among those files.

you shall see the gap when you tried the "EVERYTHING" program, it just goes one step further, but that's enough to make great difference!

I think this is not a question anyway, coz you guys can't even fix this. shall I wait for an Office 16?

Stability of using cross reference vs. hyperlink for huge document

Posted: 02 Sep 2014 05:20 AM PDT

Hi, 

If you need to add several thousands to 10~15 thousands of links to a document, what would you recommend?

For the last project we needed 4~5 thousands of links and we used hyperlink to link to (auto-bookmarked) headings. That worked o.k.

However, this time there are around 10 thousands of links so we searched for some way to ease the process. 

We could do some VBA programming to add cross reference automatically.

(All links are to internal target, and adding hyperlink by comparing names does not seem doable for us.)

The question is, is it stable enough to manage a word document with 10 thousands of cross reference? 

I've heard that the document containing too many fields can be corrupted easily. 

Will it be safer to stick to hyperlink instead?

For your reference, the document size varies from 2MByte to 30MByte.

And we are planning to add them by master document function. (which we did in the last project, producing 40-50MByte bulk when converted to PDF)

Spell and grammar check don't work

I have been using Office 365 for almost one year, but in the last months it keeps giving me problems with the spell and grammar check. First, when I started the check, said everything was good, and it wasn't. So I uninstalled everything and installed again and then it worked, for a couple of days and then started the problem again. Last time this happened it fixed only the spelling problems but the grammar check still doesn't work (without giving any error message). It is getting really annoying since I am writing a big document and it is making me wasting a lot of time. Please fix the problem.

Endnotes in Newspaper columns

Posted: 01 Sep 2014 07:32 PM PDT

I would like to use newspaper columns (where the text completely fills up the first column on a page before spilling into the second column) and I need to have endnotes at the end of the text.  However, when I insert an endnote, a continuous section break is inserted after the text and before the endnotes, forcing the two columns of text to be balanced in length.  The endnotes are then in their own section.

How can I have the endnotes within the same section as the main text, avoiding the continuous section break that forces balanced columns?

Thanks,

Looking for a large computer monitor for displaying MS Word pages at 100%

Missing Proofing Tools

Hi, I have installed Office 365 for over a year now, and I have had no problems with Word.  today, I got a message in Word that says:  "MISSING PROOFING TOOLS This document contains text in English (US) which isn't being proofed.  You may be able to get proofing tools for this language".  I clicked on the link to download, but I do not seem to have solved the problem.  I still get the message in Word, and it does not recognize misspelled words.

 I have checked the online forum and tried the solutions offered but to no avail.

I'm confused as to what could have caused this since I am the only user of the laptop, and as recently as Friday I used Word.  Please help.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your reply. However, I am referring to the START menu of

that when you click either brings up a window with tabs of the categories
(kinds of file types) and the icons represents the kind of Office program
that would handle such a work. It is sort of annoying that I need to go the

How do I buy a product key number?

Posted: 28 Apr 2007 01:52 PM PDT

I am assuming what you have is the trial version of Office. If you paid for
Office, then you need to contact Dell with proof of the purchase. You may
have trouble finding the 2003 versions of Office since that's be replaced by
Office 2007, you may still be able to find what you need at Amazon.com but I
wouldn't wait to too much longer if you're certain you want that version.

Configuration running in a loop and will not stop

Posted: 28 Apr 2007 01:32 AM PDT

I have ran the clean up tool form the microsoft site, unless they said not
to use it for cleaning microsfot office 2007. Now the reconfiguration takes
only about 30 seconds. It's nevertheless annoying but always better than
five minutes waiting.

Removing Office 2007 setup cache.

Posted: 27 Apr 2007 10:17 AM PDT

Hi,

Personally, I think all MSO caching is wrong. It breaks the most
fundamental rule of best practice in IT which is never to repeat the
same information in multiple places. It's another case of "let's all be
clueless home users why are members of the Administrators group" because
that's the only kind of user Microsoft can relate to these days.

The only proper way to install software is using an AIP, even on a stand
alone computer. the AIP is not an office feature, it's fundamental to
all software and dates back to the days of Novell Netware together with
SBS, "Server Based Installs". Office 2007 is going against best practice
if it forces the use of an MSOCache and LIS. Microsoft were pioneers of
the AIP technology, making it core to their MSI technology, but now all
that work is wasted and we're back to Mickey Mouse land. They also made
it not work over DCOM in Vista so it's even more tied to the local
machine. Pathetic:(

If you install 2007 Trial, can you upgrade later

Posted: 26 Apr 2007 04:29 PM PDT

Okay, to be honest with you...I'm not sure.

I would THINK so, but since I haven't tried it, I can't say for sure.
Sorry for missing the point. I'd suggest you repost with the info
below to clarify and also so people see your new post and don't miss
this new Q.

In fact, I'd actually suggest you try posting this specific Q to the
Outlook group, where there's a better chance that those folks have
tried this.

Good luck and sorry I couldn't provide a solid answer for you!

Instead of % in the Update Tasks dialog, use the Actual duration and

Gantt Chart by Task then by Resource Assignments?

Posted: 07 Sep 2005 12:13 AM PDT

Hi,

I'm a bit surprised you don't mention the task usage view which gives you
exactly the information you look for, especially if you insert the Actual
Work rows.

Also, I often advice to never put more than one resource on a task but to
show each assignment as a task (which IMHO gives much better flexibility in
splitting the work among the resources)

Levelling - Resources on multiple tasks at the same time

Posted: 06 Sep 2005 08:11 PM PDT

Hi,

Your assumption on week by week is exact.
Minute by minute is minute-te by minute - you are aware aren't you that
Project stores every date, every duration, every amount of work in tenths of
minutes?
To complete the thought - after leveling minute by minute no resource should
be "Red" any more.

Laurie,
No bells ring but it does help to know that the problem only occurs on
your PC. Does this only occur with the one file or does it also occur
with a new file that you create? If it only occurs with the one file, it
could be file corruption although it is strange that you are the only
one with the problem. If it also occurs with a new file you create I
suspect there may be a problem with your installation of Project.

If it seems to be file related, go to the MVP website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm
and look at FAQ 43 - File Bloat? - Might be corruption

If the problem appears isolated to your PC first, make sure you have the
latest updates for whatever version of Project you are using. You can
find those at the Microsoft website at:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/FX010857951033.aspx
If you have the latest update, from Project try Help/Detect and Repair
and see if that helps. If not, you may need to consider re-installing
Project.

Hope this helps.

Standard Project Template

Posted: 06 Sep 2005 05:18 PM PDT

You are facing a classic PM prooblem. As a new PM on an old project, your
responsibility should be forward looking. The only value of looking back is
punitive, and your job is to move the project forward according to plan. You
should consider setting each project up as if it were new and was composed
only of the remaining tasks. These can be estimated for duration, and cost
if you wish, to set up new baselines against which the project will be
evaluated hence.

If you do this, the dates of earlier completions is unecessary and projects
and PMs will be evaluated on their current merits.

If mgt asks about money spent "so far", they must be made to understand that
"sunk costs" are gone, and the proper questions are about future use of
resources.

I know that I have not given you the "technical" answer you asked for, but I
think that I have given you a better route to success. Good luck.

Copy/Paste to Outlook

Posted: 06 Sep 2005 05:39 AM PDT

Hi Siobhan,

It could be more of an issue about Outlook than Project. If I set up
Outlook to use Word as my email editor, and paste special as a picture, I
get what looks like a table with gridlines. If I do just a straight paste,
it drops the text in without the gridlines.

If you want just straight text, just paste the data in without the paste
special as picture.

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

click Adjust Dates icon.

I'm pretty sure you cannot make the English MSProject use a Dutch interface.
You must buy the Dutch version of MSProject.

Entering hours for a resource

Hi,
I beg to disagree
When he's 50% on the task you can use the other 50% on another task, so it
DOES mean he only works half the time on teh task.
In fact, for Project, he is planned on that task for 30 secs every minute.
Personally I think this is so weird that I always recommend to use 100%
allocation and if necessary make a specific calendar.

Schedule from End Date

Steve,

with the help of Jan, I was able to move my end date and see the late start
and late finish dates move with it so I got what I need for that part. The
other question I have now is would I be able to have my resources follow the
late dates not the start and finish dates. Basically, I want to see if I
shift my end dates, how would that affect my resources??

Actual work from unopened projects not reflected in resource usage

Posted: 02 Sep 2005 12:04 PM PDT

Hi Sarah,

Again, in the ideal world, you're right.
But in a resource pool-type environment, where some of the projects are kept
up to date by the hour, but others are updated only once a month f.i., you
cannot "forget" the actual work if you want a realistic estimate on the
projects that have not yet been actualized.
