Last time I used open plan was 1993 and it’s changed a lot since then! Does anyone have a user manual for latest version that I can rest my arm on - pdf format, or ANOther.
Thanks

Gents the OPP User Guide or the Developer User Manual that is available on the Enterprise version is a cut down version. You best contact Deltek directly and he can probably email you a 20 Mb version or put it on some Sky Drive or Cloud Drive where you can download it from

From the START menue > All Programs > Open Plan > Open Plan user guide :-)

It's been several years since I had Open Plan, but from memory the user manual pdf was saved somewhere like:

 

C:/programme files/deltek/open plan/docs

 

If you can't find it, speak to your IT person / licence holder.

I am not aware of any websites or forums where you can get hold of a free copy without breaching copyright.

Even so, if Open Plan was legitimately installed on your computer, the manuals should also have been.

I work for a very large company who certainly does have a licence. Is it the 'help menue' you're talking about Gary? If so, I have found it of very little help - maybe it's because I'm too 'right brain'. I would love to get my hands on a user manual that I can tag, highlight....read in bed!!

Multi user licence and goodness knows where the manual disappeared to - I was looking for the easy option.
from memory, the user & developers guides should be in your Open Plan folder, docs subfolder
