Hi - I don't think so. I beleive MS Project forces you to update the start date versus automatically moving it so you're aware of the change. If it were to just move any past due dates to the "today's date", you could have a lot of unintentional slips in the schedule.

2 - 2007 runs very slow autocalc on now (PCs are current with 3.5gb of ram so should not be HW issue)- 4 second wait time on any...
