Hi all
I think I found the solution it is hard one but that is what I reach. It is as follow:
1- Add two define user column (Text)
2- Export the two early date’s column & the two users define to excel using P3e utility tulles & SDK.
3- Use excel format with Arabic environment to change the dates to Hijri dates.
4- Change the cell format to text.
5-Import the data again to P3e using the same tool.
6- Hide the early date’s columns and change the other columns title to early dates.
Finally the client is satisfied by this solution.
Thank you

Don’t think that will work as requested in that it will still show Gregorian calendar dates.
I think it is one you have to take up with Primavera.

Dear Sir,
Thank you again.
The Hijri dates is the moslems calender which months start date are calculating from moon live cycle.
It is around 355 daysyear.
As I said the problem is that the client who located in KSA want the Hijri dates to be the basic date.
Thank you

Dear Sir
Thank you for your reply. But the problem is that the client wants all dates (early, late & actual) in Hijri format not just calculating the scheduel with the proposel you suggest.
Thank You
