Secondly have you baselined your Project?
Thirdly are you inputing actual start and completion dates, and then resheduling your project?
If the answer to all these is yes then when you reschedule your project the start of the...
There is little known macro in Project that will move all activities wheter linked or not.
i.e you have project that started on 01/01/04 and there is a repeat starting 01/01/05.

Pertmaster is still quite good and very user friendly, we were using a DOS version in the late 80's early 90's and I was on the Beta test team for PM 4.2 for...
