project start date in project 2000

[tim]

Here's the issue, a co-worker asked me to troubleshoot his
schedule. "Some" of the tasks in this respective project
schedule will not revert to the project start date when
changed to ASAP. Some remain at whatever the former
constraint date was, others change to a common date, but I
find no significance to that "common" date. And this all
happens without task predecessors or successors, which
might also have been removed or never were in place.

Hello Tim,

Check if the tasks which don't move at all have not an Actual Start date.

Hi Gérard -

Thanks, I had already checked the actuals and that is not
the cause.

Do the tasks have *any* actual info (Actual start date, Actual Work, Actual
finish date).
Are you sure the ASAP is set?
