Jeff, my reading and understanding of teh situation is the same as Dieters

Layouts, filters and that cannot be brought across. Mind you, given how arcane the filter system is in P3, Im not surprised.

You may be able to do something clever with ODBC to extract the filter data from P3 then copy/paste into the P3e forms but frankly, Id just write new ones

We are planning a migration from P3->P3e atm and are expecting to write all of our layouts etc from scratch.

Hi Jeff

The following was taken out of "From P3 to Primavera_V5" on the documentation CD. It is the same for P6.

"Data not converted This section lists the data items that are not converted from P3 to the Project Management module.

■ Layouts, filters, and Global Change, report, and graphic

specifications Layouts, filters, and Global Change and

report/graphic specifications are not converted with the

project; however, sample data is provided for these items in

the Project Management module."

But as it is very easy to create new layouts in P6, for me this never was a problem.

Regards

Dieter
