822844 PRJ2002: Active Directory Information for New Resources Does Not Import As Expected
The following Microsoft Project 2002 issues are also fixed in this hotfix
package, but they were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base
- If you customize fields that were saved in the cached
global file (Global.mpt) in Microsoft Project Professional 2002, the customized
fields can be automatically copied to the Enterprise Global without warning and
cause field duplication. This problem occurs when you have permissions to
modify the Enterprise Global and to update the fields in the Global.mpt
file.
- When you select the option to hide external tasks in
Microsoft Project 2002, the external tasks are not hidden. This problem occurs when you
expand the task to show the subtasks.
- When you copy and paste task dates in a consolidated
project in Microsoft Project 2002, the task dates may not recalculate as expected.
