microsoft project training course london - Reporting

Hi Marios

I think I can see what might be causing the problem. Project treats information about tasks and resources separately. So for example when you create a new table you have to choose whether it will hold task or resource information. The same applies to new reports.

So in your example file try switching to Gantt chart view. Then changing your table to the custom one you created, MM1. Add in the task name field. The go to custom reports (View > Reports then click on Custom Reports). Click on New and note that you can create four different kinds of reports (task, resource, monthly calendar or crosstab). As a test try creating a task type report and from the dialogue box that appears choose your table (MM1). The resulting report shows all your columns of data you listed in your original post. I think custom report MMReport is pointing to a table designed to store resource information which is why you aren't getting the data you want displayed.

Let us know if this answers your question.

Kind regards,

Andrew
