Questions & answers for MS Project software
Hi Everyone,
Somebody knows how write one formula to change the duration days to duration in hours? When changed from options >> schedule the change is only on the resume, I need to change the tasks too but using the tasks calendar information into the formula.
Best Regards,
Daniel
Hi, I have a very basic project with a list of milestones, all of which had baseline dates. For some milestones the baseline wasn't hit and we have later actual dates in another column. (Where there's no slip the baseline and actual columns have the same date.) I'd really like to visualize this on the gant with a baseline icon as well as the actual one so the missed milestones were easy to see. Does anyone know if it's possible to add a second date icon to the gant view like this?
Hello Planners,
one customer of mine is asking the fommowing question, I have to admit that I am not able to answer it; does anybody have an idea?

Hello,
For example if I enter a link such as 4SS+2, the successor colun shows it as 4SS+2 days. I do not want it to write "days" there. Because I have limited print space and just because of word "days" I am losing horizontal print area. Is there a way to adjust the display of successor column to say only 4SS+2 here, without writing "days"?
Hi Everyone,
Looking for some advice on using Prochain, the MSP Add On for Critical Chain Project Management. I've been using it for a few months now, and feel it is very clunky, slow and extremely frustrating to use.
Any advice on how to make the user experience any better?
Thanks
Misc question: - I once saw an ad for a super simple language database, I cannot find it now. Most of us use excel, even though databases are better for some things. I once saw a supersimple database taht used natural language program like "multiply cost x units" - maybe is was more script but I know is that I cannot find it or remember the name. I want to use to help automate the projuction of a long change order, break by category etc. - has anyone seen a really good change order log & similar basic construction docs system?
I'm in the process of creating a Schedule which is increasingly becoming more complex with more tasks and scope being added daily, noting P6's "Go To" function allowing you to trace up and down paths of successors and predecessor paths, is there a similar function in MSP that allows to track a number of paths and predecessors and successors (outside of Activity Path function)nwhen there may be several dozen and numerous paths in and out of an activity to different parts of scope?
Hi PP,
I have a query.
I am not sure if this issue has been asked before and satisfactorily replied by members of PP.
Have you ever encountered an issue where all the activity bars turned (red) critical after converting it from mpp to mpx?
Hi All,
I have a project where all the 11 baseline allowed in MSP has been used, the problem is the "Baseline" is the last image of the schedule that the scheudler saved before the last update. "Baseline1" is March end and "baseline2" is February end, now I want to copy the "baseline10" to "baseline" as "baseline10" is the "real baseline" for the project at award.
Second question is, Is there a way to delete cost and work information from the baseline schedule before sending this to the client.
regards
Hello colleagues. I was wondering if there is a way to track changes to the critical path of a project during the lifecycle of the project.
