WINDOWS

= SYMPTOMS =

In Microsoft Project, when you create a new project from a template file, the values displayed in the Created and Revision Number fields in the Project Statistics dialog box for the new project are incorrect.

= CAUSE =

This behavior occurs because when you create a file from a template, the statistics that are displayed in the Project Statistics dialog box are the statistics for the template file, instead of the statistics for the file that you created.

Note that most of the values displayed in the Project Statistics dialog box are corrected when you save or print the file. However, the statistics that are not updated, namely the Created field and the Revision Number field, are not corrected when you save the file.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
