Activity table and bar chart not displayed

Hi everybody,

I use P3 un my job, but recently when I open a project I can't see both the activities table at left (ACtivity ID, Activity description, ...) and the associated bar chart. I make a schedule, and on the report i can read all informations (Number of activities, progress, ...). This happened for all layouts and all projects both existed and created.

I've unistalled and reinstalled again the software, but the problem not resolved.

Please help.

Project total negative float is less (in absolut value) than some activities' negative float

Hi everyone,

I'm using P3 and have a 4500 activities schedule. The problem I'm facing is the following:

The total float of the last activitiy of the project is -10 days, and I have within the program activities with -15 days of total float. I thought that the total float of the project should be at least the same as the lower total float of the activities (so the last activity of the project should show -15 days of total float).

I really don't understand how is this happening and how to solve it, i would appreciate some help.

¡Thanks!

Problem with Import single digit lag from .DBF

 

I got problem in lag when I was importing from .DBF file. I am getting only two digit onwards, but I’m not getting single digit (from 1 to 9) in import. And I tried with decimal (like 3.00) places also and even two digits (like 03). Not able to import single digit. Anybody suggest how to import single digit lag from .DBF or any other way.

Old lesson in P3 resource graph needed

Hello

 

I've not posted on here in years. I have recently reverted to using P3 again after a long spell of using P6.

I am using a resourced schedule which has the resource on the cost, the cost also has a price per unit entered onto each resource.

Giving that the price is really man hours and the price per unit is going to be hours per day I should then be able to assume each resource can only work 8 hours per day so if i exceed 8 hours the resource (price per unit column) would show number of men.
