Well, you're now the third person to report odd behavior in Project
2003 today. As it is impacting everyone in your organization, can you
check with your local IT folks and see if any changes have been made
(updates, new software installs) lately?
Some of the symptoms you report are option settings.
Moving after enter is a setting on the Edit tab
Changing predecessors and information not changing could be modified
by turning of automatic calculations (Calculation tab) as can the date
not changing.
Can you change just the setting on the Edit tab -- no others to avoid
the "incorrect setting" error?
I am not seeing what you report although in checking my updates it
doesn't appear that anything new is installed since the end of July.
My installation of Project 2003 (same release same SP) is behaving
normally.
I'll check around and see if others report anything. In the meantime,
I assume this odd behavior is occurring with all files -- both old and
new?

I have Project 2003 (11.3.2007.1529.15) SP3
I am running Windows XP. I am not sure how to see what automatic
updates
have run recently.
I did notice 2 other issues:
-When I go into options, many of the tabs will not let me tab over
because
they say I have invalid values.
-If you type a value into the "Duration" column, the value
dissapears unless
you put the letter "d" after it - that never used to happen.

Project has always worked just fine. I have not changed
anything,
but now,
all of a sudden, many things are not working (this is affecting
others in my
organization as well):
-Pressing "Enter" will not automatically go to the next line
-Entering a predecessor with finish-to-start will NOT update the
start time
for the task
-Entering subtasks will not update the finish date of the parent
task (even
if the subtasks are scheduled to finish later than the parent
task)
I have not changed anything and I don't know what is going on.
Everyone
else I have talked to in the organization is having the same
issue.
Any help
is appreciated.
