SUMMARY
When you create a new file in Microsoft Project, the project Start Date, the Current Date field, and the Gantt Chart timescale may display a date other than the current date.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when the system clock on your computer has an incorrect date.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, change the system date on your computer so that the correct date will be reflected in Microsoft Project.



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Project obtains the current date, which is displayed in the Microsoft Project Info dialog box, from the computer's system clock.
