MS Project 2007 Summary Task Bar won't move

[John Mc]

Hi All
After an office colleague used my PC to make a plan on MS Projects 2007 he
seems to have messed my settings up, grrrr
Now when I move any tasks within a group, the Summary Task Bar doesn't
automatically move to the new 'start' and 'end' dates.
Now I can move all the sub tasks to another day, yet the Summary bar just
stays where it was.
Where is the setting to automatically have Projects re-evaluate the Summary
Bar.

Regards
John

Hi,

Tools, Options, Calculation, set to Automatic.

If it still doesn't work your file has really been messed up.
Then delete links to and from summary asks till it works.

Hi Jan

Thank you very much for the very fast response,
the Automatic Calculation was the missing link,
seems my boss had set it to Manual ....
Lesson learned here .... never let your boss play on your PC !!

Thanks again
John
