Where does project store actual work by date?

[bokeeffe]

I want to import actual work by date into Project but when mapping there is no date to associate the hours to. I did a data dump of project to an access .mdb and could not figure out where project associates/joins/links actual work with a date. If I knew this I could import my work actuals into MS project.

Actuals are one of several timephasedata fields. I've never bothered to spend any time doing what you're doing but that may be a clue to help you spot the information.

If you look on your project CD (or on your hard drive if project is installed) there are several html files that have the table and field definitions as well as instructions on how to set the flag to populate the timephased data table and how to extract actuals. Search for projdb.htm.
