When I open a MSP file, my task numbers are out of sequence.
in [Project]

Prev: Project - File for each project or File for each person on pro
Next: Manual Override Of Summary Level Percent Complete
From: JT on 13 May 2008 17:10 Yes, the file is put to "NO Group" Would this change the Grouping on a particular file if it was opened on another PC on the network? or sent through email? Thanks!
