(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.
I am having a problem with my schedule in calculating multiple float paths
The contractors schedule submitted to me has over 6000 activities this is my first month on this project and I am not very familiar with this schedule. For some reason whenever I try to run the schedule it gets stuck at 95% and then my computer crashes. I think the reason for this is use of multiple calendars and a lot of unnecessary relationships. The schedule in not very good it has random critical paths and the critical path is 80% different from the longest path.
To get back to my problem, when I asked the contractors scheduler about the problem I have he said to uncheck the option of calculate the multiple float values and run the project I am not sure if it is good idea can anyone explain to me the impacts of this.
Thanks again

Hi Somanna,
Is there any error message appearing on your screen after your computer crashes? I believe the cause is not because of the huge number of the activities as well as the multiple calendars and unnecessary relationships. And I guess there is nothing to do with the multiple float path.<?xml:namespace prefix = o />
If you mark to calculate multiple critical float paths (sequences of activities) in the project schedule, you can only specify the number of critical float paths.
Cheers,
Arnold
