Ive noted your statement "TO SHOW THE PROGRESS THAT SHOULD BE DONE IN THE PROJECT".
I guess you wanted to know the PLANNED PROGRESS during a particular date.
In such case, to do this, you can run UPDATE PROGRESS command in the TOOLS menu. On the pop-up, enter the data date you want. Select whether you want estimated progress for all activities, or just the selected ones. To select the activities, just hi-light them. Then run UPDATE.
I would suggest however that you do this operation on a separate back-up copy of your baseline program.
Actually after I wasted too much time on this subject I began to have this feeling that it’s just imposable to be done by the primavera program,but now you have just ensured my thoughts..
Thank you for your helpful information,now I can sleep and groww lolz :) ..

P3 is not like MS Project; it does not tell you how far you should be. Instead, you have to tell it how far you have gone. P3 is not a clock on the wall telling you the time. It is a ruler against the wall which tracks how tall you are growing.
You must enter status for each activity as it starts, progresses, and completes. You need to enter Actual Start dates, Remaining Duration, and finally Actual Finish Dates as appropriate. Then you press the F9 (recalculation) key and the program tells you where you stand. Good luck!
