Tracing Activity in HUGE Project

In the Open Standard

I work with a P6 Portfolio that has over 36000 activities in it. What I am struggling to do is determine if activity "A" is associated with activity "Z" because there are sometimes 500+ predecessor/successor activities and the Trace Logic tool is cumbersome. Does anyone know of an easy way to take 2 activities and run some sort of report to determine if they are linked?

And perhaps in a batch functionality...?

    I think the easiest way to do

    I think the easiest way to do it is to select file export choose excel then only export the relationships. Then sort and filter this file in excel.

    Noah,Besides exporting to

    Noah,

    Besides exporting to excel and trying to trace the logic there as Zoltan suggests, I would consider creating a circular logic link between the two activities, then try to re-schedule.  P6's error handler will then show you the connections.  I wrote a primer about this trick Here, after learning about it in a LinkedIn discussion with Zoltan and others. 

    Good luck, tom
