I have say 7 tasks. The first six should start on the same day and
have a floating duration that depends on the last task.
So I would like to have the first six tasks begin on say 4/21/08.
These six tasks are linked to the last task. The last task begins
when the other six are completed, but the last task will have a
constraint that it must be completed by 5/15/08.
Now if I change the last task constraint date from 5/15/08 to 5/14/08,
I would like the other six tasks to have their durations reduced by 1
day. MS Project keeps giving me a conflict message and it won't
reduce the durations of the other six tasks by 1 day.
So how do I accomplish something like this. This is routine in our
business. We have a start date and an estimated end date. Then the
client changes the end date and we need to see how that affects all of
the linked tasks between the start date and the end date. But I can't
seem to get MS Project to change the durations.
Thanks.
