When I show the WBS, it shows up out of order (ex: 2.1, 1.1.6, 2.2), so if I.
do a sort on that is messes up the order of the tasks again. There is only
one other person I have found online with this problem. He posted at
http://www.allpm.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=2136 but he did
not get a good reply. Maybe his explination is better than mine. I should
also point out, that while some IDs and information is still there, certain
items are missing their tasks names. The appear as rows with duration,
resources and predesessors, but no task name. Also, when I open the file I
get a circular reference message, but after I researched this, there wasn't a
circular reference to be found.
Do I have a corrupt file? Do I have a bad install?

There is an option to permanently renumber the tasks in a check box at the
bottom.
Might I suggest examination of the WBS numbering since you may want to sort
by that to get you back to the original order.
Please keep a backup copy before making permanent file changes.

Thank you. This solves a portion of the problem, but causes another. Some of
the items were in the right order but got new IDs assigned to them, so the
sort took them our of order. For instance Items A, B and C were IDs 8, 9 and
10. Then when I opened the file, A, B and C were still in the right order on
the page, but numbered 9, 10, 8. So when I do the sort, it places C above A
and B.

This is a documented bug. Although your pain is felt by many, it is not felt
by all.
The work around is Project/Sort by ID.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'm using 2007, trying to work on a 2003 file. When I save I don't have any
issues. But when I reopen it, the IDs are out of order, my tasks are
renumbered and out of place. Some extra identation has occurred and some task
rows are hidden.
How do I get it back to normal?
