PWA and IE7.

[Sally]

We currently use "run advertised programs" to download ActiveX Controls for
PWA. We are going to IE7 in April. I understand that PWA will work with
IE7.

Will users need to download the ActiveX controls again? Are the Activex
controls the same under IE7?

Sally,

The ActiveX controls you will use are the same, since nothing has changed on
the Project Server side I would assume. Generally you shouldn't experience
any issues with upgrading to IE7 as far as PWA and Project Center are
concerned.

I don't really remember if I had to re-install the ActiveX controls after
upgrading from IE6 to IE7, I'm sorry. However, if users have the appropriate
permissions this shouldn't become an issue anyway.

Hope this helps...

Thanks Mark. This is good to know.
