Global.mpt vs Globa (+ Cached Enterprise) in MS Project 2003 Pro

[MichelleDalco]

I have lost the Global (+ Cached Enterprise) when I connect Offline (using my
MS Project Server Account). Now, I just default to my Global.mpt, which
should only happen when I Connect "My Computer -> Offline". Anybody
experience this before? If so, how do I get the Global (+ Cached Enterprise)
template back?

Michelle:

When you take projects offline, you take the Enterprise values for that
project only. You can't take the Enterprise Global, itself, offline.
Therefore, you shouldn't expect to find any Global objects in your session
that you haven't already applied to the project.

Hello Gary, and thanks for responding...

My problem is not with the project files and Enterprise Global template,
it's when I am using MS Pro, in my account (as opposed to "My Computer") BUT
not connected to the server (i.e. Offline), I should have access to the
cached Enterprise Global template (my organizer used to read "View Available
In: Global (+ Cached Enterprise)). Now, after something weird happened, when
I use my Project Server Account, BUT work "offline", my normal Global.mpt is
used, rather than my Cached Enterprise Template. It has nothing to with with
a project file. This used to work for me, then all of a sudden (I'm sure I
altered something), I ONLY get the Global (+ Cached Enterprise) when I
connected to the server (i.e. working "online").
