Message: [QUOTE="Dale Howard [MVP], post: 5014153"] Quizzed again -- You can't stop it, so you need to understand it. In the Resource Usage view, didn't you notice the work is assigned to the resource named Unassigned? The Unassigned resource is how Microsoft Project 2003 and 2007 track unassigned work. The software is telling you that there is potentially this amount of work not assigned to any resource yet. In a sense, the software is telling you to staff these tasks with resources. If you publish the project, the Unassigned Work information also shows up in the OLAP cube as available information in Data Analysis views. So, you cannot stop this behavior. It is most definitely NOT a bug. This is by design; so, try to make use of it instead of fighting it! :) Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
