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.

We are planning to transfer all of our projects from Project to P3E/C. Has anyone had any experience with this? Any suggestions or things to watch out for would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brent

Brent,

From the top of my head...

There are a few things you would want to check in MSP before you import into P3E:

- Resources assigned to summary task (are removed)
- Precedence relations between summary tasks (are removed)
- Resources assigned to milestones
- The initials of the resources in MSP should unique because they map to the Resource ID (by default)

Furthermore you would want to use release 4.x of P3E because this has decent capabilitites in this area.

I use it a lot and it works real nice once your get the hang of it.

Hope this helps,

Niek.
