Scenerio:
MS Project 2003, SP3
1 Master Project
2 SubProjects
2 people performing scheduling function
Each scheduler edits only their subproject directly.
Problem:
With the Master project file closed, they can readily edit their subprojects
independently.
They can create links to the Master Project from their subproject.
However, if they UNLINK the master tasks from within their subproject, the
link is recreated the next time the project file is opened.
More detail:
After unlinking the master project task from within the subproject, they can
go to Tools-->Links Between Projects. It will immediately show under the
"Differences" column that Project is pending a "Create External"
This is limiting us to doing master task links only from within the Master
file. This is ineffiecient since 2 schedulers can not be in the master
schedule at the same time.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
