Who Does What When Report Modification ??

Capitol Mike

I'm using Project 2000 standard. I've used the search function, but I can't
find the answer to my question.

I need to make a modification to the Who Does What When Report. I'm using
multiple sub-projects in one master project. The projects were added using
the Insert | Project method.

The column heading of the date is just fine. The row heading of the
resource is fine. My problem is that I want the content of the cells to
display what project, not the hours neccessary.

For example:

Column 1 Column Heading: 7/31
Row 1 Row Heading : John Doe
Row 1 Column 1 content : 8 hours

What I would like:
Row 1 Column 1 content : 1123EassyStreet

1123 Easy Street is the name of the subproject scheduled for John Doe on 7/31.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

Mike,
Unfortunately the built-in Reports in Project don't have a lot of
flexibility. The report you want to use is a timescale based report and
therefore only those Project fields that are timescaled (e.g. Work,
Cost, etc.) can be shown in the tabular data on the right. However, many
of the built-in Reports can be duplicated or at least emulated with a
customized view. The "Who does what when" report is very similar to the
Resource Usage view. Views in Project are much more customizable. For
example, adding the Project field to the Resource Usage view should give
you the information you want.

Hope this helps.

If I understand your problem: Take one of your Text columns and define the
"project" in each cell. Go to the report and edit the way it's sorted. Sort
by Text (Project) first. Let we know how this worked.
