PRJ: Can't Copy Using Fill Handle If at End of Time-Scale (171392)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Project 2000
  • Microsoft Project 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q171392

SYMPTOMS

While using Task Usage view, if you attempt to use the fill handles to copy a value into a time field, the copied data will not be displayed correctly.

This problem occurs when you are near the end of the Microsoft Project time scale (December 31, 2049).

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, type the values into the fields rather than using the fill handle to copy the information across the time-scale.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Microsoft Project listed above.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Project is designed to work with dates that occur between January 1, 1984 and December 31, 2049. Any date information outside of this range will be ignored.
