Project 2007 - summary tasks non displaying %

Hi,

I have a couple of issues with Project 2007.

1) Project is not showing the % comlplete in the summary tasks.

2) When I update the percentage complete in the table (I.e. from 0 to 50%), projects it still displays 0%.
If I split the screen and update the % complete from there it works.

Any idea?
Are you aware of any bug in Project 2007?

Thanks

Enrico

RE: Project 2007 - summary tasks non displaying %

Hi Enrico

For the summary tasks, go to FORMAT, BAR STYLES and choose SUMMARY from the left hand column.

Then click the TEXT tab below, and from the drop down button next to RIGHT, choose % COMPLETE. That should solve the problem.

As for point 2, I cannot understand this. It may be a problem with your own software. Are you using a Beta version? You could try re-installing or better still contact Microsoft themselves at www.microsoft.com

MS Project tip:

Typing Links Between Tasks

In the Entry table, use the Precessors column to type in links. Type the previous task's ID to link. To change the link, add FS (Finish-Start), FF (Finish-Finish), and so on, and + duration to add a Lag, or - duration for a Lead time. Example: for task 5, 4FS+1w ... task 4 preceeds task 5, finish to start, with a week lag between.
