Dieter thanks for replying. That approach would be perfect, except there are other users within my project who use some of these resources. I’m pretty sure if I delete them I’ll be undoing some one elses hard work. Is it possible to do as you suggest but limit it to a specific filter within my project?



Thanks

Nice one.



If your replacement resources are a one for one replacement for the existing ones (or in some cases at least) you can use Global Update. Just configure the tool to:- where resource = resource"x" make resource = resource "newx"

That way you get the new resources in where you want them. Even if it’s only half of the 3000+ tasks it could save you a load of time.



Only a thought... :o)

Global Change doesn’t work in this case I’m afraid.



To do it manually isn’t that effort as it sounds.



Open your programme --> view "Activities" --> cursor into table area --> push right button --> select "Group & Sort" --> by resource id --> on the right border of your P6-Window you see an icon "assign resources (no 7 from bottom) push --> push "Display: All Resources" --> filter by --> current project’s resources --> then for each group in main window select all activities --> select that particular resource in the assign window --> push icon delete.



It took me more time for writing than you’ll need to delete all assignments.



Hope that helps



Dieter
