Pasting Plan

Hi there,

How can I copy a large section of one plan and past it as a seperate
section into another and keep all the dates. I tried copying and
pasting but all the dates screw up.

Any help appreciated.

Many Thanks.

lk50,
The dates "screw up" because every task from the project that was copied
will take on the calendar of the project they are pasted into. You need
to make sure all the tasks you copy either have a start-no-earlier-than
constraint or are all linked together. That should keep the dates intact.

After pasting you then need to do a thorough review of the plan's logic
and remove all unnecessary constraints.
