Show Scheduled Work to be default displayed in Tasks

[Colleen]

I am creating a step-by-step training manual on how my team will access PWA
to enter their hours completed on their assigned tasks. I would like to know
if there is a way to automatically default display the "Show Scheduled Work"
option so that the "Work" row appears automatically along with the "Actual
Work" row. As of right now I know that by clicking on the "View Options"
button they can check "Show Scheduled Work" and it will then appear. But I
want to know how I can make this default for all Task views on PWA so that I
don't have to include this instruction in my manual to the team. Thanks, we
are currently running MS Project Server 2002 I believe.

Colleen --

I applaud you for creating a training manual for your team members on how to
enter progress properly in the View My Tasks page! Way to go, my friend.
To answer your question, there is no way to force this setting on every
team member's View My Tasks page. Instead, you must make this a training
and performance issue with them. Teach them to select this option, and then
hold them accountable for doing so. Just the fact that you are creating a
training manual for your team members should help with this issue. Hope
this helps.
