The basic difference between Primavera and MS Projects is that Primavera uses a database while MS Project is more like a spreadsheet. Thats why in cases where one really wants to use, filter and sort data to a great extent PM is superior. Ofcourse this would be dependent on the inputs one has fed into the database. Hence for smaller schedules involving lower level of complexities MPP is fine but when complexity is higher then one necessarily needs to use PM
1) Please do a search in the forum and all previous discussions on this subject will be prompted.
2) Either contact Microsoft or compare the software brochure. My experience is Microsoft always claim the function is available subject to additional solutions and systems
3) It can be achieved but not like Primavera product. Depend what MSP version you have installed.
