project server 2003

here are things I want to do, any pointers will be
appreciated:

1. I want to give my customers access to [only] their
projects through project web access. In this case, we
are an IT firm working on the project for some customer.
The only way I have seen is to create a category, give
that category access to only the relevant project...and
then add the client's user ID to that category. is this
the only way?

2. What if I want to give the customer access to a
Project Center like view, but I want them to see all
their projects in a consolidated gantt chart...the only
way I have seen to do that is to enable the client access
to "Open in Project client"...and tell them how to multi
select projects and open in Project...is this the only
way?

3. Is there any way that I can have one power user that
will be able to open a screen which will have ALL
projects open in one consolidated view, where the %
complete, hours remaining and maybe due-date can be
updated - one screen...the only way I know of is to use
the method in 2 above, for viewing - through the project
client...and then open INDIVIDUAL projects in MS Project
client to update the info. any ideas?

Any help/pointers will be very appreciated...
