You may have manual calculation set. Press the F9 key to calcualte the schedule.
This setting is set by selecting Tools, Options, Calculation.
This is a system setting and affects all schedules opened on the machine and is not saved as a project setting, so the schedule may calculate automatically on another machine.
I have already set (or MS Project sets) the constraint type to "as soon as possible" when I started out the project. The problem is still there unfortunately. Any other ideas?

My problem is solved already (and thats exactly whats causing the problem), thanks anyway.
Check the setting for calculation in option. I think you have use manual type rather auto.

HI Patrick,
Try checking constraint type. It might be set to early constraints. Replace your constraint type to as sson as possible constraint.
Hope this would help.
