The only way I can find to develop a Critical Path over multiple projects is to: 1. Open the projects and select the default project. 2. Calculate the schedules. It also appears that you have to manually change all the projects Data dates manually. 3. Identify the early finish of all the activities. 4. Set a Project Must Finish by Date in all projects. 5. Recalculate the projects. Primavera Version 5.0 does not seem to have the option to handle multiple subprojects that P3 has!

We think you can try option "Calculate multiple float path" while scheduling. It can create a longest path throughout your 3 project. You need to group by "Float path" in Activity table.

Hi Kevin.
We think you can try option "Calculate multiple float path" while scheduling.
It can create a longest path throughout your 3 project. You need to group by "Float path" in Activity table.
