Link to Report has changed

[sumatradc]

Running Project 2003 and somehow all of the reports in
View-Reports-Assignments area ALL come back as the Project Summary report.
On earlier versions of the same project, all the reports worked fine. Any
ideas how my user may have inadvertantly altered the path to report area and
how we can fix it back? Where are the report templates stored? The user has
made to many edits to just forget this version and go back to the earlier
one. Thank you!

Go the the user's PC and launch Microsoft Project. Click Tools - Organizer
and select the Reports tab. In the list of Reports on the left side of the
page, which are stored in the user's Global.mpt file, do you see the default
list of Reports there? If not, what Reports do you see? Let us know.

I do see the list of default reports that match and when I attempted to
Delete the "who does what" report from my .mpp set or tried to overwrite it
by copying from the Global set, I get the message that "the Project Summary
and Base Calendar Reports cannot be copied, renamed or deleted".

As a work around for the user, I was able to Rename the report on the Global
set and then copy it over. It then ends up in the "Custom" area, but at
least it runs the correct report. If you can figure out how to help with the
original problem I'll take it though...
