missing task name

C

confusedPM

I am attempting to save my MS Project 2003 file as MS Access dbase. My MS
Project 2003 file is a master project file that contains about 16
subprojects. When I open the MS Access dbase, many of the task names are
missing. Also, I noticed all of the unique id field data is incorrect. It
is showing a different number when viewed in MS Access than what I see in MS
Project.

It seems like when I do the export, somehow the unique id is exporting
correctly which may be why I'm either missing records and/or the records are
missing data like the task name.

Does anyone have any ideas???

Hi,

When you save a master project, only the tasks unique to the master project
are saved. All tasks in sub projects remain in the sub projects, which is
why they don't appear in the database for the master project..
