How can i make linking tasks by independent resources in one project (MS Project 2003) Solution can be also in VBA
 
p.s. but not manualy because a lot of data is imported every day and that would take a lot of time (i need some kind of "auto" solution)
 
Your question is far too vague. Please elaborate.
 
MS Project is used for graphical presentation of mill planning.

There are 20 independent machines for example. Each day you get few tens orders. Each of then can be assigned to one or more machines.

So, you planned them in business program and export them to MS Project. Now, the problem is that the Project consider all machines as a linked sources (instead of independent). Therefore, the program delivers predecessor from other machine and a successor to the third one.

Links have to be made for a group of orders on one machine. I do not want first manually cancel and built up as required per machine each time when data are transferred.

I think there is no such function in MS Project, but program has to be written in VBA as macro started after data exportation with defined button press.

Hopefully this problem description might help now.
