Have found progress line fails to pick up progress in advance of status date, although works for progress on status or behind. Help please!

RE: MSP

Dear Stephen

Thank you for your question

Progress lines usually are based on a tasks cumulative percentage completion up to the specified point, in your case the status date.

I suggest that first you set the percent complete spreads to the status date. To do this click on Tools-Options-Calculation and then click on

the Edits to total task % complete will be spread to the status date tickbox

Hopefully, this will set the progress line up correctly. If you still have problems please let me know, so we can explore other possibilities

Regards

Stephen

MS Project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
