over allocation

[faxof]

when creating tasks in ms project i assign a resource to the task.

is there a way of (at the time i assign a resource) flagging that the newly assigned resource has gone over 100%?

thanks

If you're talking about VBA, then it should be something like:

If MyResource > 1 Then
  'Do This
Else
  'Do This instead or don't do anything
End If

Of course, you would need to use the real names for your objects, as well as whatever you want your code to do, and choose the event to work in.

But, if you are not talking about using VBA to do it, then you're in the wrong forum. Try:

Microsoft: Project Forum: forum913

I don't have Project on my machine to test in, so the code is a best guess type deal.

kjv1611, off topic...

I assume from your moniker, that things like, textus receptus & Erasmus might mean something to you.

If you care, you can respond to

Skip,

on same off topic. Then answer to your questions is yes. I gave a short response to the location you mentioned, but no feedback. Maybe it has some sort of filter?
