SYMPTOMS
In the Calendar view, when you use the Go To Next Overallocation toolbar button (on the Resource Management toolbar), a day may be selected but no tasks are selected, even though overallocations exist.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when an overallocated resource is assigned to a task whose task bar is not formatted to be displayed (such as a summary task) in the Bar Styles dialog box.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, show bars for tasks that are not currently being displayed. To do this, follow these steps.


 * 1) In the Calendar view, on the Format menu, click Bar Styles.
 * 2) Under Task Type, click the appropriate task type.
 * 3) In the Bar Type list, click Line or Bar.
 * 4) Click OK.

NOTE: Repeat steps 2 and 3 for any other bars in the Bar Styles dialog box whose Bar Type is set to None.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
