I wish to alter my project 2003 plan in much the same way as Fernando does.
I have tasks where the resource allocation during the life of a single task
will alter over time (e.g. 100% from 28/10 till 04/11 then 50%). I have
followed your instructions in the reply, however upon viewing the Task Usage
information I cannot alter the percentage allocation already attributed
within my plan. How do I achieve this?

Hi Andy,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

Jan is on holiday at the moment. Try this: View the Resource Sheet and
double click on the resource name. In the resource Information dialog,
click in the next space in the Resource Availability section and enter the
appropriate details.

You might like to have a look at my series on Microsoft Project in the
TechTrax ezine, particularly #28 minimizing the effect of delays where this
procedure is itemized, at this site: http://tinyurl.com/2xbhc or this:

(Perhaps you'd care to rate the article before leaving the site, :)
Thanks.)

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)
