Resource graphs in Resource Pools

[AndyB]

Hi all,

In the resource usage view I can filter by programme and by project (using
the 'project' column which references the folder hierachy for the source
files).
i.e. resource view/autofilters on/project column/filter for programe.

Now if I goto the resource graph view I find the entire resource pool rather
than those for just the programme that I have filtered.

I was thinking that the filter should be applied in the resource sheet but
if I insert a project column into the resource sheet, rather than it showing
the file directory path to the source file (which resource usage shows) it
just shows the resource pool name in every cell and thus I can't filter for
programme from the resource sheet.

I have tried to copy/paste special/project data into a new file but this
resets all tasks to start on the project start date which of course is of no
use.

Q: How can I get the resource graph view to show just those resources
assigned to the programme that I have filtered for?

thanks in advance,

AndyB.

Well, first, we have to teach you fellows across the pond how to spell
"programme" correctly!

That's not it. It's that with our spelling, there's no "me" in program!
