User Unable to See his Child-Linked Tasks from PWA !!!

I wonder if this is a bug in Project Server 2007.

Here is the scenario:

- Logon as a Project Manager
- Create a new enterprise project in PS 2007
- Add one of the Team members to be part of the Team Build for this project
- Add 3 tasks for this user:
Task01, Task02 and Task03
- Link Task01 with Task02 so that Task01 is a predecessor to Task02. Leave
Task03 with no predecessors
- Save & Publish the Project

Now, logon to PWA using this user account
- Click the "My Tasks" link
- Strangely enough, the user is only able to see Task01 & Task03
In otherword, he is not able to see the child-linked task Task02 !!!!

Is this a bug??!! Is there a workaround??!!

I am using:
Micorosft Office Project 2007 (12.0.4518.1014)
Microsoft Project Server 2007 Installed on a Win2003 Machine Connected to
SQL Server 2005

Thanks

On the team member's My Tasks page, ask him/her to click the Settings pick
list button and to select the View Options item from the list. The system
expands the View Options pane at the top of the page. Does this user have
the "Show Only Current Tasks" option selected? If so, is Task02 a task
scheduled far enough in the future that the system does not consider it a
Current task? That would explain why the user can see Task01 and Task03,
since they are both Current tasks, but not Task02. Let us know what you
find.
