MPP Export from P5

Ronald,



Thanks for the reply. Tried purging deletes as you recommended but this didn’t really speed things up.



In the end I exported as MPX files which appears to have carried across all logic and resource information except calendars.



So after creating the calendars in the MSP global view was able to change the resource calendars and level. This got the dates within 24-48 hours which was ok.

This is a classic symptom of failing to purge deletes before exporting. Try Admin / Purge Deletes before exporting next time. Also, once you interrupt a process like this, I find that MSDE gets ‘all tangled up’ and works much faster if you first re-boot. Good luck!
