(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.

Thanks DATTATREYA I get the point. I ’ll try to filter them in Excel and marry them using lookup function. U r right it must be easy to change any relationships there in Excel as we want. After that I’ll try to re-import.I believe u r one of P3 masters.

Hi ulysses, I’m Contractor and also Client of our Subcontractors. My friend make that (-) lags before he go, so risk on me now..lol. I’m sorry dude the original question is not clear for u. Enjoy in Qatar, I think it’s good and safe country like Japan.

Hidayat,

pl export all the successor relationship in the export feature in either dbf or\excel. You will get a list of all activities with successor , lag duration & type of relation ship. You can filter all negative lags. As for other details like title & codes, export the normal activity content in a separate file & link/marry these two files & produce whatever report you boss wants. I have just re-checked the procedure & it works well.

Cheers

You can give a list of lag to your boss in other option, using report then tabular; this will give you list of lags.
maybe in some software you can filter lags, but in p3 in wont.
