What version of Project should I buy

[Patty]

I run a medium sized construction company. We have a LAN network with a
server. Need info on the best version of MS Project to buy. We have 2
Production managers creating schedules plus 4 others in the office that would
like to view schedules.

Hi Patty,

first of all, it is probably the best to purchase the latest version of
Project, which is Project 2003.
The big question you may want to ask yourself is "do we need Project Server
2003" or "do we only need Project Standard 2003".

The following link may be able to answer some of the questions:

Hope this helps

Given the small size I would go with Project 2003 Standard. The features
of Project Server are great but it would require way more overhead to
setup and operate than your small shop would likely get out of the system.
