    Convert to Excel Without Reformatting

    Hi ireland & Others, Not sure why, but for some reason, I can't upload the MS Project file. To re-iterate my intents: I would like to take my full MS Project layout or plan & past its raw data into Excel. Once I can get the data "cleanly" extracted, I use Excel functions to extract the...

    Gantt Chart View vs. Tracking Gantt View

    Hi ireland, Perhaps to some, having this extra flexibility between the various Gantt views is advantageous. At least for the Header & Footer areas, it's annoying, but manageable if one wants the same header & footer. For the primary Gantt Chart & Tracking Gantt views, MS Project seems to...

    Convert to Excel Without Reformatting

    Oops, Part of my message got cut off & it does not appear that I could upload 2 documents at once. Here's the message: It took a while, but I finally took some time out of my very busy schedule to submit something. I know you are also quite busy, but your assistance is greatly...

    Convert to Excel Without Reformatting

    Hi ierland, It took a while, but I finally took some time out of my very busy schedule to submit something. I know you are also quite busy, but your assistance is greatly appreciated. I made a bogus project up within MS Project which is a typical layout of one of my projects. I have a...

    asking advice as a new grad

    Hi GogiBob, If you are really interested with the space industry, there's a company called Space Exploration or SpaceX, based near Los Angeles, CA. They were recently in the news too! I don't work for them, but they did contact me for a prospective opportunity once. As for opportunities...

    Company Received Non-Compliance

    Hi rb1957 & hacksaw, Thanks for responding. The company is primarily tying to comply to ISO 4.2 - Documentation Requirements & ISO's 7.3 series - Design & Development. From what I understand, my manger gave the ISO auditor the run-around because there was "no" sufficient documentation to...

    Zoom In or Out WBS Area?

    Hi ierland, I'm not comparing prices of software but the functionalities of it. I would think that some functions would or could be basic, such as having a spell checker & zooming functions, which most MS Office applications has. We know that MS Project has been around for quite a...

    Looking for Project Management Excel Template

    Hi Group, Would someone happen to have a good Excel template or two that can produce Project Management Metrics, such as: * Planned vs. Actual * Be able to calculate duration over or under target date(s) * Demonstrate current project statuses vs. milestones * Work Performances -...

    Zoom In or Out WBS Area?

    Hi Group, From what I gather here is that MS Project does not have a "simple" option to zoom in or out on the WBS or Gantt Chart areas. The more I use MS Project, the more I hate it! Would someone happen to have a good Excel template that can help a PM manage the tasks & show planned vs...

    Gantt Chart View vs. Tracking Gantt View

    Hi Group, Why does Gantt Chart View vs. Tracking Gantt views have radically different views? Also, why does one need individual headers & footers between to the 2 different style views? I'm desperately trying to show the planned vs. actual project plan, but every time I adjust a date, it gives...

    Convert to Excel Without Reformatting

    Hi ierland, I was looking for the MS Project, but appears I deleted it. I will make another & submit with Excel file to see what you can do. As explained before, I just simply copied from MS Project into Excel. When I do this, I loose the WBS structure & bit of the formatting. I...

    Zoom In or Out WBS Area?

    Hi ierland, Thanks for this great tip. I will explore its use shortly & see how well it works for me. It appears that this Filter feature would require several rules to get several desirable views. Once set, is set permanently, unless I modify or remove the filter or do I need to create...

    Zoom In or Out WBS Area?

    Hi ierland, Perhaps, that's what I need to do - Make customized or combined views. Now would be the question on how easily can this be done? Can I take - Lets say all of Task 1 & its subtasks & make that only vieable? If so how? I'm too far into my Project Plan to do any radical...

    Zoom In or Out WBS Area?

    Hi ierland & Others, With MS Office applications, such as within Excel, there’s a zoom option to make the cells more viewable. This can be accessed in a couple of areas, such as under the View Tab, the bottom-right corner, in which the user can hit the + / - symbol to enlarge or reduce the...

    Reverse Engineering OEM Turbine Blades or Vanes?

    Hi MikeHalloran & Others, This appears to be the type of precision that I’m seeking. I deal with a company that despite its 40+ years of “reverse engineering” expertise, still has difficulties proving full traceability. I’ve asked for Characterization Matrix, Characterization Tree (kind of...

    Reverse Engineering OEM Turbine Blades or Vanes?

    Hi, Does anyone here reverse engineer turbine blades or vanes? If so, I'm curious to know which applications are being used - Geomajic, RapdiForm, PolyWorks, etc. & which CAD applications used - (Unigraphics) NX, ProE / Creo, etc. I'm curious to know how you ensure accuracy or alignment &...
