TASK_DUR ERROR

[Gabriele]

Hi to all,
I am facing from a while with a problem related to the task_dur field
in msp_tasks table and it's "equivalent" property duration.
I use a sql stored procedure to write many tasks in the sql server
table and after I read these datas from MSProject, but some tasks
appear to have a null duration ( 0h ) even if the task_dur field is
not zero and the field EXT_EDIT_REF_DATA is set to '1'. The
strangeness is that the duration in the table is well calculated
(duration in minutes * 60) but I cannot see it in Project.
I am getting crazy with this problem!

Did you open and save the project using MSProject after you have entered the
data and set the proper flags? If not, then the field will not be
calculated.
