Hi there,

I have tried the solution for bloated file and it helped.

My finish dates do not get calculated correctly due to which my critical
path seem incorrect.

Regards! Thanks!

Thanks Mike!

Because when the task is 90% complete over a period of 1 week, the
calculated finish date is around 10 working days after the status date.

That makes sense actually ... % Complete is the duration that has been
worked compared to the total that is required. So if 5 work days
represents 90% of the duration, there's about half a day left to do.
The status date could be anything and the expected finish is not related
to it at all - where the expected finish falls with respect to the
status date is completely dependent on the relationship of the task
start date to the status date because it's the task start date plus
duration that defines the task finish date.
