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 there,
Why would you be wanting to change the actual dates? It is simple to do but not acceptable. Either somebody has been lying or else.

Hi Yves,
U can use global change, or import/export...
1.if u going to use global change u can look sample in p3 how they use it. It will run automaticly after u run the global change , be careful u have to backup the file first.
in case the output is not like u wanted u can use your backup.

Actually not advisable to use global change... it will effect your budget course, manhours etc. and it become dispute...I recomend u change manually, one by one...
It quiet risky and tedious. I did this before, but once is enough, after that incident ... i have my backup each time, i want to update the progress.
have a try...cheers

Just because actual dates were put in by mistake. The activities were 100% but actual starts and ends should be changed to correspond with reality.
