Issue that the hotfix package fixes

    Consider the following scenario:

You configure the cleanup operation to delete completed task assignments that are older than a certain time period. For example, you configure the cleanup operation to delete completed task assignments that are older than 30 days.

    After you do this, users view their task assignments on the Tasks page in Project Web Access 2003. However, summary task information is no longer displayed. Additionally, subtasks are displayed as top-level tasks.
