PRJ98: Double-Click External Task Doesn't Select the Source Task (197100)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Project 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q197100

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project 98, if you double-click an external task, the source project of the external task becomes active, but the task is not selected in the source project.

NOTE: An external task is a task that represents the linked task in another project.

CAUSE

When you double-click an external task, Microsoft Project does not select the task in the source project; it only activates the project. This behavior is by design.
