"Import from Sharepoint List" - Personal Activity - Updates?

R

Robert Dole

Hi all,

We are new users to Project Server 2007 and Sharepoint. I am able to create
a new task for myself - by importing from a Sharepoint list.

What if this Sharepoint list changes or is appended? So far I've not been
able to import the changes, other than deleting the created project and
re-importing. Is there a more elegant solution?

Our goal is to provide users the ability to easily manage their own tasks,
but those tasks need to be up to date in a Project as well. To do this we
created a Sharepoint site with user lists that are easily updated. We
intended to import these into new projects that are reviewed by management.

The import from a SharePoint list is just a simple one-way one-time action.
You could either just keep your master list in project and not synchronize,
or with much more work could use events on the SharePoint list and the
programmatic interface to Project to keep the tasks in sync. I'm not sure
this would be worth the effort.

Thank you Brian. In that case I think we'll go another route with this. :) I
had a feeling it was intended as a one time thing.
