Q136842

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

When you are using Microsoft Project and you have not yet saved the current file, if you choose to shut down your computer from either Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows NT, and if you save the project over an existing file, you will not be prompted that you are overwriting the file.

Normally, when Microsoft Project detects that a filename is already being used, you are prompted with a message similar to the following:

Replace existing PROJECT1.MPP?
You do not receive this error message when you initiate the system shutdown process.


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Microsoft Project listed above.
