Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi I have recently upgraded to MS Project 2010 and the Analyse Time Scale Data tab doesn't exist. Is there another way to create S-Curves on Project % Complete Planned vs Actual

With Project Tracker you can create S curves directly from Microsoft Project without the need to export the data to a spreadsheet. If you have the XML file you don't even have to have MSP on your machine. It can create the curve from the durations of the activities in your project plan, you do not need resource or cost allocations. For more information and a free trial, go to ww.willmer.co.uk.

Alexandre/ Donald,

Would it be possible for me to get your individual e-mail addresses?

Right click on the table and you will be able to change the view to manhours

The easiest and most flexible way to generate S-Curves is to copy and paste time phased data from the task usage table in to Excel. You will need to format man-hour data to remove the "h" so that Excel interprets the data correctly as numbers.
