Member for

all dates are calculated 

all you have to do is to goto group and sort

then group by wbs

make sure that show group totals and show grand totals is checked in the group and sort

then select view collapse to then in the drop down select wbs

thats it of course make sure that you have a column for the start date and a column for the finish date

Thanks for your thoughts, but not being a Primavera user I don't understand the comment.

What I wanted to establish is - are the start/finish dates for all wbs items stored within the SQL database or are they calculated 'on the fly' by the Primavera application? The same goes for finding out if a Task/WBS is on the Critical Path.

I can calculate a WBS item's start/finish dates but if it is already calculated and stored in the SQL databse I can just write a SQL SELECT statement and get it.

easier to just summarize the WBS and roll it up
