External links

[Marco]

Hi,

I have a project with external links. When the external link has changed and
I open the file (I work with project server), I get a window asking me to
accept the changes. I click "All" to accept all changes but when I look at
the task in the Gantt chart it has not changed, the dates are still as before
I accepted the changes.

any idea what could cause this ?

Thanks.

Marco,
Just a hunch, but is the calculation option under
Tools/Options/Calculation tab set to "automatic"?

Yes, it is Automatic.

Marco,
Ok, my hunch didn't pan out. Unfortunately I don't use Server so I can't
offer any further suggestions. Hopefully one of my fellow MVPs who work
Server can step in and offer assistance. If you don't get an further
responses within the next couple of days, try posting on one of the
Server newsgroups. For a list of Project newsgroups go to the MVP
website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs
and look at FAQ 24 - Project Newsgroups

Hope this helps.
