I am not sure if I am entering something wrong but my problem is as follows:
When I enter a recurring task in Project 98 and allocate a resource, the calculations show that the resource is "busy" (this is also reflected in the costs) for the total period from when the task is first carried out until the last occurence happens. e.g. an hourly task once a week for a month has a duration of approx. 20 days instead of 4 or 5 hours.
Can anybody point me in the right direction so that I can use recurring tasks? or is this a "bug" (I think this also happened in Project 95). Having read the Project Enhancement Guide for Project 2000, it does not seem that MS have identified this issue.
Thanx
