Different finish dates on tasks with same start date

[Neill]

I've got two tasks with the same duration in two separate projects that start
6/2/2005 but they finish on dates that are weeks apart (4/20 vs 5/3). They
both use the Standard Calendar and are even across the same period. I checked
the calendars and couldn't find any differences. The Pred/Succ are the same
too. Any suggestions?

Are resources assigned to these tasks?

If so the calendar assigned to the task that has the later finish date
might have none working days.

No resources are assigned. Therefore no resource calendar assigned.

Does the task have a different calendar than the project does? You can
find this on the Task Information dialog on the Advanced tab.

I finally figured out what it was. The project with the earlier date had a
standard calendar alright, but didn't have the holidays put in like the later
date had. Duh! Thanks anyway for your help.
