Well, it's happening again. I have two tasks, 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. I just
created these two tasks from scratch. Their start dates defaulted to
6/16/03, the start date for the project.
On task 7.1.1, I set a constraint of Start No Earlier Than -- 4-8-04.
That task's start date appropriately updated to 4-8-04. Then on task
7.1.2, I adjusted its predecessor to task 7.1.1 (of course, indexing
off of 7.1.1's actual ID), using a Finish-to-Start (FS) 0d lag
relationship. I have not modified 7.1.2 in any way except to give it a
name and a predecessor.
Task 7.1.2's start time stays fixed at 6-16-03.
Tasks 7 and 7.1 both have the default start date: 6-16-03. Task 7's
start and end dates and grayed out, and its percent complete is 18%.
(This stems from the fact that other tasks under 7 are completed.)
Interestingly, task 7's end date is 3-30-04 despite the fact that task
7.1.1 has a 4-8-04 start date!
In the Gantt chart, the line that indicates a relationship between
7.1.1 and 7.1.2 goes to the left instead of to the right.
I know i could manually change task 7.1.2's start time, but that would
break its dynamic nature.
I have installed the Project 2003 update that addresses the problem
with un-indenting tasks.
What's up with this?
