RE: Dependencies

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Pratta,
Thank You for responding.
This works great for for me viewing the dependencies in project.
I am looking to create a report for my customers that would be easy to read.
When thay look at the predecessor or successor fields they would like to see
task name.
This is more meaningful to them instead of WBS.
Not all my customers have MS proj.
I copy and paste to excel to do dynamic reporting.
In our enviroment the que takes to long to clear to make use project center.

Any Suggestions?
Note: We are converting to MS proj 2003 is there anything in 03 that will
help?
