Basim,

The reason Gary directed you to PWA is that it provides "consolidated" views of multiple projects as part of it's normal course of duty. Project professional isn't so.

Question: are you or your company using project server or not?

In order to do it on project pro you'd have to start by creating a master project and add the other projects as sub-projects. It would also help, assuming you're not using project server, if you created a "resource pool" project plan so all your resources are in one place. Then you may be able to accomplish what you want.

If you are only interested in the resources that are within a specific plan,
assuming you are using Project Server, you will get that information from the
Resource Usage View. It will identify any resources that are also assigned to
other projects PROVIDING they are also assigned to your plan. If you only
want to see assignments for your project team, you have to use the filter:
Project Team Members.

As Earl states in the next post, the only way to identify all resources and
their assignments is to create a master project. PWA is a better solution for
this, as both Gary and Earl state.
