  • 1. VBAProject Missing
    Hi, I work in a project office with approx 20 Proj Mgrs and Proj Admins. We have a couple of macros we use in all MS Project Plans. We are now experiencing a problem that in some of the plans the macro's are dissappearing. If I go into VB Editor the entire "VBAProject" project is missing (and hence the modules contianing the macros that are under this). Does anyone have any ideas? My thoughts is it might be related to MS Project versions. We have a combination of 2002, 2003 and now 2007. If someone used the default Very-High security in 2007 would it physically alter (or remove) the macro's and make them inaccessible to older versions? If so - can/how do I get them back? Cheers, Cameron.

Allocation Percentage

Postby SmVycnlpbm5j » Sat, 27 Aug 2005 00:48:27 GMT

I am trying to find a way to change the allowable allocation from 100% to 
less than or more than 100%.  I want this to be a temporary change so that 
resource can be looked at that are say allocated more than 125% and have 
those resources in RED only. I tried to change the maximum units on the 
resource sheet and I get some interesting results when I look at the Resource 
Usage.

Any thoughts on how to do this.

2.New resource allocation percentage is ignored

I use a shared resource pool. I noticed that somehow my percentage allocation 
on a task was 106%. Don't know how that happened.. but I changed the task 
allocation to 15% and then saved the project and the resource pool.

Apparently Microsoft doesn't like that answer because each time I close and 
re-open these projects, the percentage is back at 106%. The only way it does 
not bounce back to that value is if I open the sharer project alone and do 
not open the resource pool when asked.

This behavior has happened on several tasks in several different projects.

3.Protecting a resource's allocation percentage across multiple proj

I have a resource who is doing work for multiple, related projects.  He can 
only invest 50% of his time (e.g., 4 hours/day) across all of these projects.

So as a simple example, if each of the four projects require four hours of 
his time, the Resource Usage view would show him spending four hours per day 
for four days.

I think what I need to do is have this resource in a master project, and 
have all the projects he is working on be linked into this master as 
subprojects.  

Will this meet my need?  What other things must I do to ensure this resource 
does not get overallocated and all Finish Dates correctly uphold his 50% 
allocation constraint?

4.Allocation percentage changing

I have what I consider to be a basic project.  The resources (they are 
people) are set-up permanently at either 75% or 88%.  The project is set-up 
to use automatic leveling and everything is fixed units and effort driven.  I 
think everything else is set to default values.  Evrything works fine except 
one thing.  When I assign a resource to a task that has less than 7 hours on 
it the allocation for the resource is automatically lowered to match the 
percentage of time it would take to complete the task.  For example, when I 
assign a resource to a task that has work of 2 hours, it changes the resource 
to 25%.  If I then reselect that same resource, the 75% or 88% shows back up 
again.  Any ideas why this happens?  I have tried messing with various 
options including the effort driven option and it always does the same thing 
(changes my resource allocation the first time it is assigned).  I am using 
Project 2003.

5.how to get resource allocation percentages in a query using Project web-access?

Using MS Project web-access 2003, I want to query the cube and - for
every project - show the same content I would see on the task-resource
name field in MS Project itself.
The problem is - I can't seem to find the fields to do this - to break
it down by task and % of resource's time allocated to that.

E.g. I'm looking for a field that produces this - for each project -
in a single query:
                     John Smoth[20%], Cindy Ryan[50%]
