PRJ98: Export Map with Filter Does Not Save Summary Tasks (191994)

WORKAROUND

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
To work around this behavior, modify the Windows registry to display related summary rows when saving a project using an export map. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Quit Microsoft Project 98 if it is running.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type Regedit and click OK.
4. In the left pane, navigate to, and select the following subkey (folder):

        HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MSProject.HTML.8
   						

   NOTE: This subkey will show related summary rows when a project is saved as HTML. To add this functionality for other formats, use the following registry subkeys under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT instead:

      Format                 Subkey
      ---------------------------------------
      HTML                   MSProject.HTML.8
      CSV                    MSProject.CSV.8
      Access                 MSProject.MDB8.8
      Any of the ODBC
      (SQL, Access, Oracle)  MSProject.ODBC.8
      Text                   MSProject.TXT.8
      Excel                  MSProject.XLS5.8
   					

5. On the Edit menu, point to New, and click Key.
6. Type ShowParents for the name of the new subkey.
7. In the right pane, double-click the Default icon.
8. In the Value Data box, type True. Click OK.
9. On the Registry menu, click Exit.

Now when you start Microsoft Project 98 and save as HTML, related summary rows will always be saved.

NOTE: Related summary rows will always appear independent of the option in the filter. To remove related summary rows, change the value for the registry subkey created in step 8 to False instead of True.
