Master Snapshot Linking/Unlinking

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Hello experts,

These questions relate to doing a master project linking/unlinked (snapshot).

My scenario and questions are this:

1.) I am going to have to create a master project with about 25 sub-projects
within it at any single time (sub projects will fall off after completion).
Most all the projects will have shared (human) resources. I am using Project
Pro 2007 (no server). I am the only person managing it all. At this point, I
am thinking that inserting and LINKING the subs into the master will be the
best solution (in helping me with the constant updates to each sub). However,
having the foresight to know the Executives will really only need a
"snapshot" during their meetings (which is normally weekly), this means I do
NOT need to do a linked master/sub set up. This is especially the case since
each week, I am required to email the updated "report" for them to see each
week (before their meetings). So, I'm trying to understand how I can
accomplish both scenarios. So:

?? - Is it a situation where I will create my inserted/LINKED set up, but
then once-a-week re-do (something?) to create only a snapshot for the
meetings?


2.) This deals with "archiving" my sub projects. As I mentioned above, my
master list (linked) will have about 25 sub projects going on at any one
time. And, as the projects are completed, I want them to "fall off" my Master
(so that 5 years from now, I don't have a bloated system). However... I can
also see the importance of having "historical" data as it will never fail
that a "finished" project will need to be reviewed for whatever reasons. So,
I'm trying to understand how/what is the best way to save/archive those
projects which are completed and will "fall off". Any ideas are greatly
appreciated.

Thank you!
