Hi Arnold



I actually got the issue resolved thanks.



The problem was the P6.1(contractor) to P5(me) conversion. When using a friend’s P6.1 the duration was changed to days and worked just fine.



Thanks

Hi Arnold



Normaly you could change the duration by typing i.e 3 days. After changing the duration to days, the activities display duration in days but if you change original duration to 3 it is not 3 days but 3 hours.



I like P6 in some ways but in some ways it SUCKS..



Know P3 well though..

Hi Martin,



As far as I know, you can only change the hour to day is from user preferences as what you did.



By the way, what do you mean "when you enter durations it is still in hours"?
