Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi,

Recently I have just amended my resources cost. I want to update my cost baseline by updating the current project by importing previous updated *.xer files. However, when I try to schedule my program it become 0% (except for the 100% activities). Can anyone advise me why does this happen? Or do I have to manually insert in the performance percentage manually one by one to each of the activities. Which by the way consist of more than 500 activities!!!

Thanks in advance guys
