Practically every time I try to paste the copied selection Project crashes.

There are some instances where I can copy tasks. I don't have a
particularly
complex setup here as I'm just trying to set up a system where multiple
project managers can work on the same project by each having their own
linked
files.

Of course, unless I can find a way of copying tasks from their backlog
files
into the current iteration the whole thing will grind to a sad end.

Anyone know any solutions?

Please don't say 'Project Server' to me though ;)

&e7,
I replied yesterday but don't see that reply so I'll try again. Pardon
me if this is redundant.

You mention having SP2 but you don't say which version of Project. I'm
not sure it matters but it is always good information to supply when
posting.

I'm confused about what you actually have with regard to configuration.
You say you have a linked file. What is is linked to? What is the master
made up of (i.e. does it include the noted file or something else)? What
exactly are you trying to copy and paste?

If you are trying to set up a configuration wherein more than one user
has simultaneous read/write access to a file, that can't happen. And as
far as copying files with links, you are asking for trouble (i.e.
corruption).

If you can give us a more succinct description of your configuration and
your end goal, then we can help. And, the answer may or may not be
Project Server.
