Hello,

When I plug in various projects to a master schedule and save it, it usually asks me if I want to save all the projects inserted into it and of course my Master schedule. If I say No to this, does it affect the information saved on to the master schedule? I.e. dates? Changes made on the master? And if I say yes, does this affect the “other " saved projects on separate sheet?

Please advice.

Kind regards,
sudeep Bhuller.

I will make the assumption that you have inserted the sub-projects as read/write.

If you have tasks within the Master schedule as well as inserted projects, and you make changes to both the tasks within the Master Project as well as tasks within the inserted project, and then you click on save, it will first ask you if you want to save your Master project. If you select Yes, it will save the changes that you made to the task(s) within the master project. MS Project will then ask if you want to save changes to the (specific) inserted project. If you select No, no changes will be made to the inserted project.

Hope this helps!
