This is probably happening because your macros and settings (views,
tables, filters, etc.) are stored in the global.mpt file.
You can go to Menu: Tools/Organiser and see a dialog box that allows you
to move things (fields, calendars, forms, views, groups, toolbars,
tables, reports, maps, filters, and modules) from MPP to Global.MPT and
back.
Sounds like you need to move some things out of Global into a specific
MPP file.
There is a help button on that which gives a fuller explanation.
