Adding files to Project Center

[jay myerson]

HI there,

I am having trouble adding files to a project in the project center. I am
trying to add a link to a file that I created using Keynote. I have tried
adding the same file by clicking on the green plus icon and selecting the
file in the window that follows, I click "open in that window but the file
never appears. The same problem seems to happen with documents I created in
Pages too.

Other file types appear just fine, PDF's, PowerPoint, word etc.

Any help would be very welcome.

Thank you in advance,

-J

Same thing happens to me. I think it's because iWork documents are actually
not single files but containers and Entourage has trouble with creation of
aliases for containers. I could be wrong, though.

Anyway, a workaround is to either create an alias of the iWork doc and
manually put it in the Project folder, or put the actual file in there.

Thank you kindly Dan.

I discovered the same work around.

I hope this is a feature that will be addressed if it's possible to get
these container type files to work in Entourage natively.

Thank you once again,
