How many levels of subprojects can you have in a Master Project?

[Pat Walsh]

In other words, can I insert a subproject into a subproject of a Master
Project? If so, how many levels down can I go? Sorry if this is a repeat, I
looked in Faq's and did a search of the community before I posted.

No effective limit. Your only problem is that the more sub-projects you
have, the more links you have, and if anyone renames, moves or over-writes a
sub-project then one or more files will corrupt sooner or later. So make
sure you enforce strict guidelines.

Rod,
Is that really true? The specs say a user can have up to 1000 inserted
subprojects, give or take a couple depending on which version of Project
is being used. I would assume that also limits the number of insertion
levels to 1000, but maybe not.

I do agree however that even if the limit is 1000, for all practical
purposes that is equivalent to "no effective limit".
