    Importing Excell Worksheet into Project

    MS Project Server Slow

    MSP 2003 is a bad piece of software so far with regards to performances. MSP 2003 Server is a little bit better but still it has poor performances (We also use both of them at office). I heard that MSP 2007 is alot better on this topic. Cyril Guichard Defense Program Manager Belgium

    unexpected formula update when referenced cells are moved

    Well, Excel is programmed in such a way that if you move a cell which is referenced elsewhere in a formula, then the formula is automatically updated. That's the way it works. One has to admit it can be kind of useful to avoid updating formulaes each time we make a change on our spreadsheet. Of...
