RE: Multiple Projects

Hi Keith

If the projects use the same resource pool then its easy.

Simply set each project to get its resources from the resource pool. (With the resource pool open, open each project and select TOOLS-SHARE RESOURCES and then choose the file that contains the resource pool.)
You can then open the resource pool and choose to also open a master project that contains all the individual projects. You can then link individual tasks

If the projects do not use then same resource then its still easy!

Simply open a blank project and then click on INSERT and select project, and choose your project. You can then repeat the process for every other project, and then link them in the normal way. They will not however use the same resources.

Regards

Stephen
