hi,
I have a program which had 24th floors and from 3rd onwards all floors are same.Now floors have been incraesed to 37 typical floors. which would be the best way to copy the activities to of a typical floor to other floors. i m using fragnets but want to know if there would be any other method which is fast as i m already havin 50000 activities in the whole program.
Also i have inserted some activities and putting relations is a problem as i cant fillcell so how to insert a relation similar in following ones

thanks

Santosh

    But, that would not maintain relationships.

    Either copy from within P3 (which would maintain relationships) or use fragnets.

    dear santosh,

    its depends on the creativity of the planner either way...
    in terms of quickiest way we can use fragnet, but in terms of awareness we can use import / export.

    awareness of making mistake if the relation or the resources is not being full copied automaticly so we can double check on the spreadsheet itself thats my opinion another thing at least we got the data backup because i have an experience when we doing fragnet the pc is hang..so the data corrupt. thats what i mean. cheer up man.
