Hi Bob,
thanks a lot for your prompt reply. MIT's approach to project management
including the corresponding tools and documentation is really well
thought out. It is one of the best examples or even the best example I
have seen so far.
I would be really interested in an "exportable" version of your
Filemaker tool. Therefore, if Kevin already has such a version of if he
is able to create one without taking too much time I would really like
to have it. Thanks!
Have a good start into the new week!
Sunny regards from Switzerland,
Roman

However, some of history on how we evolved this database can be found in the project notebook for the project then known "Operation Plan Alive!". You can get the link to this notebook http://web.mit.edu/is/delivery/iswork/ also from the completed projected in the IS work database. (How is that for recursive documentation? :-)
