We need to build in contingency tasks in case something doesn't survive the testing activity and needs re-work, re-test. Can you create a if-then task for the contingency tasks such that our monte carlo schedule risk asessment can say 40% probability we need to rework/retest and assess the...

We have a task that fabricates a piece of equipment. The resources in human terms build up costs as they charge to the job. To set the baseline for our customer we also have to incorporate the cost of the sale of the piece of equipment completed at the end of the task as a one time charge...

We use FY all the time to sink up with the Government's FY planning. I like to set the top tier to FY with the FY tick box and the middle tier to CY for our accounting calender. I have not seen a template that states, "FY 2009" as an option versus simply "2009". Its been manageable, but would...

PDQBach, Your just about spot on. However, our customer takes EVMS very serious and by law as its Gov't. I do recognize its not trivial and am working through the tracking part of the program with respect to activity completions and costs incurred to create EV. They do go hand in...

Thanks PDQBach, I was already trying to work with the predecesors, etc. The main reason for the resource becoming available is like BOM, but more towards EVMS and collection of costs. I was trying to establish the resource cost for fabrication, then make it available for use. I'm...

I've been trying since MS Project came out to create resources or material that underly the ability of tasks to complete and move on. In our business we manufacture equipment that needs to be tested many times in different scenarios. The first tasks are to fabricate the equipment and the...

We would like to view our database in a table view form. When we find a record of interest we'd like to double click on the row for the record that opens a form view of the record to get to all the memo fields and child table info as a table frame to the parent record. i.e. view customers in...

Thanks, Bill

Please disregard my last email. It did not dawn on me about a matrix contained within in a structure i.e. series.wk[i], essentially a connected child matrix. I am now onto the best part, making the darn funtions put the correct formulated values into the array. Simplicity is beauty Bill

How do I link each row of the matrix to the record structure for all the other pertanaint data in the record for the item. The combined effect is a record history. In database format the parent child link works great, but the math we need to do isn't supported well except by 'C' code for a...

When we set-up the maintanance database a couple years ago we have several memo fields to document the equipment's failure information and corrective actions. Now we are trying to export that data for analysis and our engineer uses excel or access to look at the data. The export feature of...

Thanks everybody. I think the structure with a union of DeVooXiam's posting looks like it will get me the 2 d mixed array. I get very confused about the pointers array, linked list as to me that seems more indicative of a parent child type database linkage. After structuring the union...

Hello, I am trying to create a program that has an array of structures. To visualize, the structures would look like an excel spreadsheet of records. The indexing I need to do has to go from top to bottom, i.e. struct[i].member, plus go across with a method to index on the member. I can...

This looks great as a standard calculation! Where can you actually insert a formula to display as a formated value, say in the lower group band. I am aware of insert field, special, summry, but was not aware of putting a specific formula in was allowed. It was looking for a field to sum. Bill

Thanks, I'm gpoin to work the library feature and the other recommended solutions, Bill Swain

In a report can you do a summary of a calculated firled. e.g. calc field = qty * price. Then I want to summary the total of the calculation. Seems simple (and is in excel), but all I get is Zero in the summary field at the end of the group band. Bill Swain

Does anybody know how to pass a variable from one form to another. On the first form I am at a specific record number. Then I need to enter child table data, I use a push button to open a data entry form for the child table. When I go to my child table form it defaults to the end. I'd...

Thank You that has been very helpful. Bill Swain

Thanks for the reply. However, I did find it offensive to attach the weblink to a webpage that was condescending to people. In fact your response answered the compilier question (thanks), but I am still left with the API interface dilema. I would like to have a simple interface for windows to...

My last version of C++ was version Borland 4.5. It has served me well. However, recently it keeps crashing during make/run part of the IDE. I think is due to the compatibility with WIN2000 pro that I'm running. My industry actually is engineering that writes code to do something...
