CAUSE

This problem occurs when your are in a project that contains at least one inserted project and you create a new calendar for the inserted project.

On the File menu, click Open.
Select the inserted project, and then click Open.
On the Tools menu, click Change Working Time.
Click New.

After you create the calendar, you can return to the consolidated file.
