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.

Status: Reviewed

Version(s): 5.0

red herring! Not sure how this happened but the activity in the baseline wasnt the same as the current project. So now I need to find out how this happened!

If your project database (usually PMDB) was created with P5.0 and a SP prior to 3 or 4 (pl check POINT) you should also upgrade it with the corresponding Primavera utility, because Primavera changed the it’s fields, stucture and queryes.

Cheers
