Timescale issue in MS Project 2010

I still get the timescale issue where the different scales show different out of sync displays. For example when you show half years on the top tier then quarters on the 2nd tier and months on the 3rd.
The half year scale only show H2 repeated across the screen,
The quarter tier starts the new year in the middle of the above tier H2
The 3rd quarter shows Dec as the start of the 4th quarter tier above.
I understand that Microsoft came out with a hot fix in April of 20012 for time scale issues. How do I check to see if this patch has been installed and does it fix this error? 

cliquidoxygen,
More importantly you should have SP2 for Project 2010 installed. It picks up all cumulative updates through June 2013. In addition, I suggest you also install the June 2013 cumulative update as it was released after SP2. You can get the SP2 update at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2687521.
The June 2013 update is at: http://support2.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=2817385&kbln=en-us.
However, it sounds like the issue have may be related to your fiscal year setting. Make sure you fiscal year setting is correct for your scenario. Take a look at Julie Sheet's wiki on the subject: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/28633.project-fiscal-year-display-in-views.aspx
Hope this helps.

  • Issue with turning on project 2010 / 2013 - "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."

    I get the following error after the installation and configuration window of MS Project: "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."
    It happens both with MS Project 2010 and 2013 on a Windows 7 desktop. 
    I tried installing / uninstalling Office 2010, MS Project, tried installing 32 and then 64 bit versions, clean up, disk error checker, startup changes (msconfig), anti virus, running as Windows 7 and then Windows XP compatible mode. 
    Nothing helps. I see this issue reported as early as 2007 version of MS projects on Microsoft forums, but I do not see any solution anywhere. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue without having to reformat hard drive? Every other application, including
    all other Office programs work seamlessly. 
    I also tried Microsoft support, after an hour and a half of basically doing what I did before, I was told I have to pay 99$ for "premium" support, so someone can look at this bug. 
    I have 16 Gb RAM and more than 200Gb or hard drive free, so actual memory is not the problem. 

    This issue was originally reported with MS Project 2007 and keeps popping up since.
    A quick Google search provides more than 200K pages of results of this issue:
    https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=There+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+To+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren't+using%2C+and+then+try+again.
    And 193K results on Bing:

    Computer was defragged already. I run more tests, and specifically when MS Projects tries to run, it tries to take all memory, more than 300Gb, on the computer. (DropBox was running at the same time, and warned that there were no space. As soon as MS Project
    stopped attempting to configure itself, everything came back to normal and the available space became available again.)
    Looking through older forum posts, looks like this application tries to take "unlimited" amount of memory. Some registry fixes are mentioned potentially, but I was not able to apply them. 
    Since everything else works, this is a MS Project bug reported by multiple users on various versions of Windows, including Vista and 7, so please provide a fix and not 'not a know bug' lie. All the premium support will say, is to format the hard drive, unless
    they have a patch or a registry edit solution. If the latter is true, since the issue exists for multiple years, it should have been already been provided to users.
    Also, I am not running a SQL server, or any server, this is an installation on a local machine. 

  • SCCM 2012 - Project 2010 Standard deployment failed with error 1603

    Hi everyone,
    I’m in the progress to roll out a software deployment via SCCM 2012, it’s to remove the current Project 2010 Professional we installed and reinstall the Standard version. We got a task sequence for the job, which is Reboot>Un-install Project 2010 Pro>Reboot>Install
    Project 2010 Std.
    The Un-installation process uses this command: setup.exe /uninstall PrjPro /config "PrjPro.WW\uninstall.xml"
    The Installation process uses this command: setup.exe /adminfile project_silent_install.MSP
    But the deployment result is quite random, some of the PCs would succeed without any issue, some of them with fail at the installation process with 1708/1603 error. As far as I know we use standard Win 7 64bits SOE across the environment, so everyone should
    have same system baseline.
    I reviewed some of the failed Project 2010 Standard installation logs as it shows the following:

    Can onyone enlighten me what's went wrong, and why did I get this inconsitent installation behaviour?
    Thank you very much!!!

    1603 means there is a fatal error during installation process.
    Take a look at the article below. It may help on finding cause.
    Hi Juke,
    I did do fair a bit of Googling before I started the post. I have increased the logging level on one of the machines failed on the installation. Apparently Project installation log doesn't throw the "return value 3", I think it's pointing to a particular
    updating item, anyone knows what is it?

  • Project 2010 SP1 Installation Crashes

    I'm trying to create a package that will handle both brand new installations for Project 2010 as well as upgrade installations for those running Project 2007, the latter of which represents a large population in our environment.
    I basically followed the same process I used when creating packages for Office 2007, Office 2010, Project 2007 and Visio 2007, all of which work today:
    run setup.exe /admin
    create a new .msp
    make my adjustments (very few)
    save into Updates directory
    customized PrjPro.WW\config.xml (after first creating a backup!)
    run setup.exe
    I'm testing the package on a machine that previously had Project 2007, but after running for a short time, setup crashes.  I thought maybe the problem was with the config.xml so I undid the changes one at a time, then moved up to restoring the orignal
    config.xml file but it continues to crash.
    There's a setup log in %temp% that contains what may be the core issue

    I'm beginning to wonder if there's an issue with the existing Project 2007 installation, or the way it was uninstalled [by the Project 2010 setup] - but maybe its something altogether different.
    Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    My point above is that Project 2007 was extremely buggy and unless files are saved using Project 2007 SP3 first you are likely to experience problems with the files when opening in project 2010. Project 2007 to 2010 with no service packs is problematic.
    With SPs applied you should have far fewer problems.
    Doesn't look like a exe with SP2 is available yet so you need to add the service pack separately, probably in the updates folder.
    If all Project 2007 installs are already at SP3 then no need for this.

  • Invalid Duration error in MS Project 2010

    Hi,
    I have a user who has brought an issue to me.  He is a regular user of MS Project.  When he opens up his .mpp file he instantly gets an error of "Invalid Duration.  This is not a valid duration or it is outside the range for this field". 
    He has tried out every validation resolution option there is, he has looked at unpublished work items, he has also checked it through Excel.  He has re-entered the data, checking the format of every single piece of data.  Nothing was wrong and none
    of these checks have made any difference.   If he clicks on the Ok button on the error message, the file does then appear to operate normally with no issues, but he can't be 100% sure this is the case due to this message re-occurring every time he
    opens it again.  Is there anyone that has any ideas why this might be happening.  Please could someone throw some light on this ...?
    Thank you,  Lisa

    Check if using Macro on the plan. Similar issue has been fixed in June 2013 for project 2010, not sure which version you have seen the reported problem.
    Project 2010 hotfix package (Project-x-none.msp): June 11, 2013
    'http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2817385'
    You run a macro that sets the duration of a custom duration field for a task in a project in Project 2010. When you save and then reopen the project, you receive the following error message:
    Invalid Duration
    This is not a valid duration, or is outside the range for this field.
    Type a duration in the correct format: for example, 4 hours (or 4h), 12 days (or 12d), or 2ed for elapsed days.
    If its 2010, test with the above cu as its latest one.
    If this isn't case, please try using XML and check if that helps.
    If above doesn't help, provide information on project version and past history of plan, like was it created in past version and now opened in other version, etc.

  • MS Project 2010 cut and paste 255 characters in notes column field into MS Excel

    I need to copy and paste notes fields in MS Project 2010 which have more than 255 characters into MS Excel and I want all the text to paste into MS Excel (ie >255 characters). I need to be able to do this for at least a text column and the notes column
    as I can do a lookup from there. So to recap I need to copy and paste the contents of 2 columns including the notes column into Excel and paste all the text >255 characters. I know how to do this cell by cell however this is not feasible for a large
    plan on a weekly basis. It sounds so simple if you know how!

    John, 
    I agree that note field will accept more than 255 characters. May be in my comment i have written "Both" that is confusing. Limit is only for text column.
    Some time note field  may give some issues refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/169726

  • MS Project 2010 Product Key Activation Error

    Hello,
    Our company purchased a version of MS Project 2010 a few years ago and it was installed on a laptop in our office and was working without any issues.  However, that laptop recently had a virus issue and it needed to be completely cleaned off and rebuilt. 
    So now I am reinstalling all the software that was on that laptop.  When I try to install the MS Project 2010 for that laptop it says that the Product Key is good and lets me install Project, but when I open Project it asks to Activate the version using
    the Key online.  When I say yes, it says that the Product cannot be activated because the Key is not valid.
    Why won't it let me activate?  It is the same version that was previously installed on the same laptop?  Please let me know what I need to do to activate this software.  Thank you.
    - Sarah

    smonville1,
    I think this is an issue you'll have to resolve by contacting Microsoft directly. Have your key available when you talk to them.

  • Project 2010 Filter Selector (+/-) Not Displaying

    Hello all.
    I'm using Project 2010 and am having a problem with the "filter selector" - the "+" or "-" symbols which allow you to roll-up or expand sections.
    I first noticed this with Summary Tasks in my project file not displaying the small boxed in "+" or "-" symbols.  I've hunted around for a setting option that could affect this but haven't come up with one.
    Now I've noticed the same thing when using the "Group by:" function and choosing "Critical."  The tasks do group by Non-Critical and Critical - but there's no "+" or "-" symbols Critical: No or Critical:
    Yes lines and thus I can not collapse them or expand them.
    Complicating things is when I create a project schedule of my own in order to test things and those "+" or "-" symbols appear and function as expected.  The project file in which they are lacking seems to lack them on other
    computers than mine so it doesn't seem to be a particular hardware issue.
    Is there some setting in Proj 2010 that I'm missing?
    Is this an indication that the Project file itself is corrupted?
    While a somewhat low level problem, this is reducing the functionality within that file and if the file itself is corrupted them that could lead to other problems.

    Madoc,
    There is a setting, (now hidden in Project 2010), that turns on and off the outline symbols and that setting is saved with the file. There are various ways to correct the issue but let me show you where to find the setting so the next time, if there is a
    next time, you will be prepared.
    1. Right click in the ribbon area to bring up the "customize the ribbon" item
    2. On the right side of the Project Options window, hit "New Tab" and then "New
    3. Under that new tab you will see a "New Group". Select it
    4. On the left side chose "Commands not in the ribbon"
    5. Find the Outline Symbols and select it
    6. Hit "Add" to put that into your new group under your new tab
    7. Hit "OK"
    Now select your new tab on the ribbon and you should see the Outline Symbols option unchecked (for this particular file). Check it and close.
    You might want to peruse the list of other commands not in the ribbon that you've been racking your brain to find and add those to your new tab. I did.
    If the Outline Symbols option is already checked for this file then the file is probably corrupt. In that case save to XML and re-open in Project. Note, you will lose any custom formatting.
    If this answers your question, please mark it as the answer.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does Project 2010 Pro crash on cut and paste operation, among many other problems?

    I guess my question has more to do with this: I'm trying to find a hotfix, patch or update for this. Can you advise?
    Thanks,
    Aldo

    Hi, Mike,
    Thank you for your very informative reply. Please accept the comments below in the interest of understanding the problem a little better. I will read your articles and comment on them, if applicable.
    What I think you are suggesting is basically for me to provide more information. Perhaps you could advise on how my concern could best be addressed. It's a simple matter of copying and pasting lines until it crashes, which I can't understand why I would
    want to avoid, particularly when the actions of the interface clearly support it. So, from a UI design perspective I have to ask, if this is a valid task for an Excel spreadsheet why is it not for a Project spreadsheet?
    Please bear in mind that the issue here is not related to the effective use of the product, but quite plainly why doesn't this stuff work out of the box on a simple paste operation?
    By "Adding", in my previous comments, I mean go to the "Project" ribbon, and select the "Subproject" button. Following is a very detailed set of steps.
    1. Open Microsoft Project 2010 Professional, in either 64 bit or 32 bit mode.
    2. About Microsoft Project displays (14.0.4751.1000) MSO (14.0.4760.1000), by going to the quick access tool bar, selecting "Customize quick access tool bar", selecting "More commands", selecting from the pull-down "Choose commands
    from" the option "All commands", and then the "About" option in the list view right below it. Press the "Add" button in the middle of the form. Press the OK button. You will see the about button on the quick access bar. Press
    the button to see what version of the software this is. If you need additional information to help troubleshoot the issue, please let me know.
    3. On the currently open default blank project, first save the project by pressing the save button on the quick access tool bar. I've named this file "Project1.mpp", and the physical file location is the Documents folder on Windows 7. The task
    name becomes "Task 1". I then click outside the row.
    4. Select the entire row by clicking on the number column to the left of the spreadsheet. Press the "C" key while holding down the "Control" key. Now select the next row and press the "V" key, while holding down the "Control"
    key. Do it again if it makes you feel better.
    5. Press Ctrl-S to save. Now close the project by clicking on the "File" menu and selecting the close button.
    6. Create a new Project file, by selecting "File", then "New", then "Blank project", then "Create". Repeat steps 3 through 5 but this time name the project "Project2.mpp"
    7. Click on an empty row on the spreadsheet. This will serve as the placement location of the sub-project. Click on the project tab, Click on the  "Subproject" button on the left of the ribbon and select Project1.mpp. Your original Project1
    will appear as a sub-project. Select a row in this subproject and copy and paste this row onto the previous project. Everything should work fine and your rows should paste.
    8. Now try pasting onto the same subproject on the row below. The application crashes.
    Thanks again for your reply,
    Aldo

  • Project 2010 Crashes

    Hi,
    I've been having this issue to export to PDF from Project 2010 (Std Ed - 32 bit). It just hangs and no response for ever (not responding mode)
    I searched for fixes, but no luck so far and i also contacted vendor who purchased the software for our company and he does not seem to answer it. Lost all my hope and i run to people when ever i need to export to PDF version.
    As i last resort, i'm here..could someone suggest how to fix this? Do i've to install any Service pack?
    I tried the options that MVP Sapna mention in a thread and no luck - https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f2a7c40d-c5b4-4194-97cc-addc5703112f/project-professional-2010-crashes-when-saving-to-pdf-format?forum=projectprofessional2010general
    Appreciate your speedy response on this.

    Hi Shyam,
    First of all, if not done, I'd suggest you to install the
    SP2. Then try to repair Project from the control panel. Finally, does it happen for all projects, or just specific project(s)?
    Hope this helps,

  • There was a problem sending the command to the program when opening Microsoft Project 2010 files

    When opening MS Project 2010 files from the file and print server, I receive "There was a problem sending the command to the program."  Copy the same file to my local drive and the file opens fine.  This can be repeated by several other
    users.  Created a simple project file and once the size hit 1 MB, the error appeared.  The error appears on all files over 1 MB.
    I am a domain admin, so it is not a rights issue.  This does not seem to be a network latency issue, the file copies extremely fast.
    Any ideas?

    This message appears to be caused by Windows Explorer trying to send old-fashioned DDE messages to the Application.
    Since MS Project has no "Ignore DDE messages" setting you might want to go change the compatibility settings for WinProj.EXE (and any shortcut to it) to Windows 7 or greater.  Hopefully then Windows Explorer will stop trying to send DDE messages.
    Another possible culprit is older versions of the WinZip explorer extensions - I would disable them as well.
    Good luck,
       James.

    Wheather Ms Project is connected with Project Server or we are doing locally and open new project.
    Is this microsoft bug or what is the solution of this .
    If we check on google . There are many causes of this issue on net and many solutions.

    John.Eddie,
    In addition to Dale's advice on SP2, try following steps
    Close Project Pro
    Navigate to following path  and rename existing Global.Mpt file

  • Project 2010 Freezes when trying to print

    Hello,
    I'm having a issue with Project where files that have a fair to large amount of data in them (2-6mb) are unable to print from Project 2010 Standard x86. I am unable to even print to a file like PDF or XPS, each time I try to print the application freezes
    and will remain not responding until closed. 
    This is happening even if I completely re-image the computer and re-install Project 2010. I know that it is not due to a corrupted file because I can still print the file from older computers with Project 2010 standard, which makes me believe that either
    a new update or possibly some registry edit in my image is causing the issue.
    If I try to save as PDF I get this error " the columns are too wide or too many columns to print per page". I get this error on pretty much any type of project file that has a normal amount of data in it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated it.

    atylerblack,
    First question, do you have SP2 installed? Maybe those older computers with Project 2010 are actually more updated than your current computer.
    You might also look at the cumulative updates since SP2 to see if any fix printing issues. A reference for this information is: http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/p/msp10.aspx.
    Are you able to print other files that aren't so large? You indicate you get an error message on any type of project that has a "normal" amount of data but we have no idea what you consider "normal".
