After trying everything else, sometimes just using P3 to copy the schedule to a new schedule cleans-up problems that other efforts miss. Good luck!
P3 File Fixer is cool. I used it and the file size becomes smaller. And probable there are some corrupted files that was cleaned by the PFXW.exe.
But the ghost activities I mentioned still remains. So, What I did is, when the ghost activities showed up, I "cut" (Ctrl+X) it instead of delete it. After that, the ghost activities never showed up again.
No, the behavior that you describe is not normal for P3. It sounds like a corrupt database. This can happen in P3 when multiple people access the same schedule at the same time (especially during power failures/computer crashes/etc.). It is time to drag out the old P3 File Fixer. On your computer, locate the following P3 program and run it,
C:\P3WIN\P3PROGS\PFXW.exe
Select the schedule in question, check all of the fix options at the bottom left of the screen, then Run. The Help button can educate you further. Good luck!
