Re: Resource Information and Emails

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry


Hi Julie

I have the email option in the collaboration drop-down. But no workgroup
command in the tools menu bar.

Thanks for the link. I'll take a look and get back to you ;-)

Have a great day, H

Hi H,

Okay, if you've installed the WGSetup.exe file and edited the
registry -- have you restarted Project?

It's been quite a long time since I used the workgroup message
handler so I may miss a few things. Once you restart, go to Tools >
Options -- do you have a collaboration tab? You'll need to select
the email collaboration from the drop down list.

Do you have a "Workgroup" command in the Tools menu? Do you now
have a collaborate menu?

Also try stepping through the information in the following KB
article. I think it does a pretty good job detailing the steps
needed.

Hi Julie

Thanks for the link. I downloaded the application and made the
registry
changes but can't seem to find any reference to it in the
project
menu's. I
was expecting to see the workgroup function in the tools menu
bar.
Any tips?

Do I just create the string and leave the value null?

Thanks for your assistance, H

Hello Hardip,

In the File menu is an option to Send To a mail recipient as
either
an attachment or a schedule note.

Releases of Project prior to 2003 had an email workgroup
feature.
The workgroup feature is available as a separate download for
2003,
however it is not supported by Microsoft.

See:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818337/en-us

for details.

Fuller integration is available with Project Server.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi All

I've add the email address in the resource information ***
for
each
resource. On checking it brings up the appropriate
individuals
email address
from the company address list. How would I use this
feature?
Can
I email
tasks directly from MS Project via MS Outlook, request
updates
on
% Complete
or does that require something like MS Project Server? This
is
for an
individual project only.

Just trying to find some of the new features in MS Project
2003
(yeah I'm
behind the times).

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

Cheers, H
