Hi all,
I have two schedules in P3. In one, I can click on an Activity ID then edit it to change the number.
In the other, the Activity IDs are greyed out when I select them and I am not able to edit them.
Any ideas on how I can set up the second schedule so that I can edit Activity IDs?
Thanks a lot.

or edit the p3.ini
As per P3 help:
To edit activity IDs
Enter a zero (0) on the ExclForActIDEdit line in the [Options] section of the P3.INI file to allow editing of activity IDs without exclusive access:
ExclForActIDEdit=0
To require exclusive access to edit activity IDs, change this line to ExclForActIdEdit=1. - 0Johny Kesserwany ·In order to edit an Activity ID, the project must be open in exclusive mode.
To open a project exclusively,
1. Go to File, Open
2. Highlight the project
3. Mark the Exclusive checkbox
4. Click Open.
