Issues that the hotfix package fixes
This hotfix fixes the following issues that were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:  You open the Resource Information dialog box in Project 2007, click either the Windows account or Details, and then perform any other action. When you do this, Project 2007 crashes.

 When you try to open a link in a task to a task in a different project that resides on Project Server, you may receive the following error message:

Cannot find specified project.

This issue occurs if the project that was linked to was renamed.

 When you use the Leveling function on a collection of tasks, the end dates of some tasks are not calculated correctly. Additionally, the end date of these tasks and the of project may be much later than expected.
