Dates in subproject and master roll-up not consistent

J

Jason Bailey

Hello,
Using ms project 2003 sp2
I've spotted something odd in sub projects and a master roll up of all
projects.

At present I'm not really using actuals. Colleagues are basically adding %
complete, start and end to projects. These dates appear fine in the
sub-project. On opening the master project the date is, undestandably,
incorrect. If I expand the subproject in the master view, the dates change
and appear to be correct. If I then:
save the roll-up and subprojects (as prompted)
close the master
open the master project again
Expand another subproject
The previous subproject loses it's dates and reverts back to the old
pre-expanded date.
The dates are not lost as on expanding they re-appear.

The problem means that the master file doesn't show the correct estimate of
start/end dates.

Is this by design? Am I misunderstanding something.

Thanks
Jason
