Is there an easy way to export multiple MSP files into multiple peoples calandars?

RE: MS Project

Hi Chris

Thank you for your question. The stand alone version of MS Project doesn't make integrating with calendars especially easy.

There are third party software products that will synchronise MS Project plans with Outlook calendars. I have not tested these but a quick internet search will turn up some potential solutions.

Microsoft also produce Project Server which can integrate projects with Outlook although this is a big software solution and requires dedicated servers and infrastructure support.

Do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Set default task type - Project 2010

a. In Project, click on the File tab
b. Select Options from left hand side
c. Click on Schedule to set the scheduling options

i. Generally if you plan/estimate your projects using durations you should use fixed duration, and untick the box New tasks are effort driven, if you plan/estimate with person hours use fixed work, or for plans estimated with the proportion of resources time use fixed units, and untick the box New tasks are effort driven)
