Thanks for that, The one thing I was struggling to achieve was linking the first/last MSP activities into Primavera to see how it impacts in the overall programme. Are you suggesting this should be possible?

Im cautious when moving a programme from MSP to P3e, its not always a smooth transition. MSP and P3e dont always follow the same rules when it comes to things like constraints, calendars or resource assignments. The process I follow is to import MSP programmes into a standalone version of P3e where I can check it and fix any anomalies which have occurred during the import. Once its been cleaned it can go into the main database. Its a little long winded but it saves you from having to deal with any surprises in your operating database.

To link P5 with MSP there is an application called projectlink, or something similar, that comes with the software.

I have used the option of saving the programme to Primavera when in MSP through the Primavera toolbar but this just gives read only access.
