Hi Mesdward,



With P6 v6.2.1 "Progress Line", this feature is not yet supported.



Wherein P6 v7, "Progress Line" is already part of their enhancement. You can find this feature in View Menu --> Progress Line.

Hi Milind,



What do you mean "now it is Oracle instead of SQL"?



If you have installed your P6 v7 standalone, it is the same steps with P6 v6x the only thing is that, the installation wizard will let you choose the Industry selection.



Now, if I understood you correctly, your database is configured using standalone with Oracle XE. If it is, then try the following:



Install the Stand-alone P6 v7:



1. Open the Client_Applications folder and double-click on the setup.exe file.

2. Click Next on Welcome screen.

3. Select the Industry to determine terminology and default settings for calculation. This replaces the entry for product code.

The industry you select determines application defaults, calculation settings, and the sample data that is installed with the client modules.

4. Select Primavera Standalone.

5. Choose and Installation Location

6. Choose a Common Files installation location.

7. Choose whether or not you would like sample projects to be added to the database.

8. Choose Program Directory.

9. New for standalone with Oracle XE, users now have to enter a password to be used for all the database users. For security purposes we no longer set the default password automatically.

NOTE: Oracle database passwords are not supported with multi-byte characters.

10. Click install to begin the installation.

11. Oracle XE, Project Management and Methodolgy Management databases will then be installed.

12. Click Finish to complete the installation.

13. Choose whether to restart your machine to fully complete the installation.





NOTE:

Prerequisites

• Make sure your computer is running Windows XP Professional (sp3) or Windows Vista (sp2).

• You must have administrator rights to your computer

• If installing on a 64-bit OS, the Oracle 11g client is also required to be installed.



Users and database aliases for stand-alone installations

When Oracle XE is installed, there will be 3 new default users for both for both Project Management and Methodology Management:



For Project Management the default users are

ADMPRM$PM

PRIVPRM$PM

PUBPRM$PM



For Methodology Management the default users are

ADMPRM$MM

PRIVPRM$MM

PUBPRM$MM



The names of the default database aliases are ORAPMDB and ORAMMDB.

The passwords for these users will be the password you provide during installation.

Hi Pat,



I tried again and again what you are looking for but unfortunately NO success, even in P6 v7.0 you cannot assign resources using global change. You can only replace resources but you can’t assign.



Why not try the easiest way.
