What Works and What Does Not

After resolving the LANG problem, this is what works in Project 2000 under 3.0.0:

  • Column resizing
  • Window split moving
  • Scrolling (quite well)
  • Complex documents
  • Japanese
  • Chinese
  • Views: Calendar, Gantt Chart, Network Diagram, Task Usage, Tracking Gannt, Custom Views (w/ Japanese Titles), Resource Sheet, Resource Usage
  • Sorting
  • Grouping
  • WBS Code, Renumbering
  • Project Information
  • Options
  • Spelling
  • Customize toolbars
  • Minimize, Restore, Resize, Maximize Window
  • Drawing (Caveat: see below)
  • File > Properties
  • Exit: No save
  • Save As
  • Save (Only after an initial Save As)

What does not work:

  • Views: Resource Graph (Bunch of garbage graphics on the right; doesn't crash though!!)
  • Format > Font (Font preview scale is way too big.)
  • Drawing (Switching to another window and back does not refresh the Drawing toolbar.)
  • Exit: Save (See next)
  • Save - When it's the file you just opened, there seems to be some weird resource lock race condition causing Project to think it is Read only:
    Work Around - Execute "Save As" first, and then edit the file regularly. For safety reasons anyway, it would be good to save the document as a new version (append v1.1) and work on it.

Anyway, I'll report back as I use it more.

Also running 3.0 Project 2000 also has some gitches when it comes to some of the controls and context pull down menus.

i.e when creating a task, some of the pull downs to choose the length of the task are missing (as if they aren't in the libraries)
