Excel-like "refresh" for MS Project?

[mikevanpmp]

All,

Is there a way to tell MS Project to "refresh" itself after putting in
large amounts of data? By refresh, I specifically mean to recalculate
all calendar dates based on the predecessors, successors and durations.
MS Project is supposed to do this automatically, but I've seen a few
cases where it doesn't. Being able to prompt MS Project to recalculate
all in the manner described above would be helpful.

v/r,

Mike Van, PMP

HI,

Tools, Options , Calculation.
Set to Automatic of "Calculate Project".
If it still doesn't the filre contains a circular relationship.
