How can I disable "Work Contour" automatic updates in MS Project?

[Carine]

I do not want MS Project to update Actuals and Remaining Work on his own.
Currently, when I enter Actuals, the Remaining Work is automatically updated
(the way it is updated depends on the "Work Contour" selected). I want to
update the Remaining Work manually and do not want MS Project do it by
himself. Is there a way to do this? How?

After you enter the Actuals, enter the remaining you want to see.

I suggest you change the task type to "Fixed Units" and have 4 columns:
Start, Actual Start, Finish & Actual Finish. I give the task an actual start
then I can either change the duration to project a finish or type in a
projected "Finish" date. Good Luck
