Linking different project plans

Is it possible to link 2 projects that are related to each other?

RE: Linking different project plans

Hi Kamilla - thanks for your question. Yes it's possible. One way to do this is to create a new temporary project and from the file menu insert each project you want to link. Theyn drag links between the relevant tasks. Double click the links to set them to the type you want. Close and save all the files. Now the projects will be linked. You don't need to keep the temporary project you created. Hope this helps - let us know if you have any further quesitons.

Kind regards, Andrew

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.
