(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 running P6 R 8.4 is there a way to change the settings default when a new project is created?  I am looking to set the default of define critical activites as longest path instead of Total Float less than or equal to.  I work with a variety of skill levels with P6 and it would save a lot of wasted time if I can set the default critical activities to longest path.

as a work around is to set everything up in a empty shell project with no activites then just copy it everytime then all your settiings calendar codes ect are there for you.
