Re: Tas Numbers Out of Sequence (Part 2)
I've had the same problem. I'm using Project 2007 Standard. When I select
the resort and premanent renumber option, it does the sort and renumber;
however, after I close and reopen the file, the numbers reverts back to the
original ID numbers. Has MS develope a patch for this problem?

Re: Tas Numbers Out of Sequence (Part 2)
Hello Joel,
In quick testing with Project 2007 with SP-1 and the Infrastructure
update installed, I see what you report. Sorry, neither seems to
have corrected that issue. I believe those are the latest patches.
I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Re: Tas Numbers Out of Sequence (Part 2)
Julie, thanks for the confirmation, but this "bug" really causes lots of
problems for my clients and me. This feature works in Project 2003, so MS
should have a "fix" for the problem by going back to version 2003. There are
a few other nuisance problems with printing that worked in version 2003, but
not in 2007.
Begging for a patch,
Joel

Re: Tas Numbers Out of Sequence (Part 2)
Hi Joel,
Sorry, I have no pull with Microsoft and their bug fixes. You can
certainly contact Microsoft support directly and they may have
better news than I or there may be a hot-fix that they have
available that I am unaware of.
If you have not installed SP-1 and the infrastructure update, I
suggest you do so -- it has solved some other problems -- sadly --
just not the renumbering one.
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.
