SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project 98, after you save changes to a resource pool, one or more resources assigned to tasks may be replaced with a different resource.

CAUSE

This behavior may occur when the following conditions are true:

  1. You open a project that shares resources from a resource pool that is read-only.
  2. You create a new resource in the project, and assign the resource to a task.
  3. Another user on another computer updates the resource pool with a new resource.
  4. You then update the resource pool to reflect the new resource from step 2.


RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, install Microsoft Project 98 for Windows, Service Release 1 (SR-1).

STATUS
