week numbering

Boertjes, David

I am having trouble with week numbering in Project 2000. According to my
work (and I believe the ISO standard) this week, the week of June 8th, is
week 24. Microsoft Outlook also agrees. However, Project insists that it
is week 23. We use week numbering alot and having the week numbers on the
timeline is very useful.

I have found a workaround of starting the project on December 28th, 2003 and
then having the timeline number weeks from the start of the project, but
this is difficult to work with as all of my date entries are usually in
weeks which is still wrong in the task information view.

Does anyone know what to do?

Cheers,
David W. Boertjes

Hello David,

Set the Monday as the first day of the week :
Tools / Options / Calendar : Weeks start on : Monday

Tell us if it works for you !

IT WORKED!

I honestly still don't see the correlation - and I object to the week
starting on a Monday, but I really don't care anymore.

Thank you so much,
David W. Boertjes
