Hi, I am using the standard status field in MS project, the summary task
shows the status as late when all of the sub tasks are showing Complete , on
shedule or future task, none are showing late.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the status of the sumary task to
show the corect status.

Richard,
Without seeing your actual file, I don't have a ready answer for what
you are seeing. Try the following. Hover your mouse over the column
heading for the Status field. In a moment the help file for the Status
field will appear. Take a look at the definitions Project uses for
assigning the various status designations. My guess is, you will see a
problem with the cumulative percent complete for the summary line versus
the status date.

Hope this helps.
