All rights reserved. MPM Getting Started 5 ©2008 Deltek, Inc. All rights reserved. 6 MPM Getting Started About this Manual The Getting Started manual describes how to get started with MPM. The components include: Overview of MPM Installing MPM Using MPM MPM Documentation Set The Getting Started manual is part of a documentation set that includes: MPM Globals This manual describes how to set up and manage your Global Sets in MPM, which are used in all your MPM projects. MPM Projects This manual describes how to set up and manage projects in MPM, define Work Breakdown Structures, establish baselines, track project milestones, replan projects, and report and analyze data. Standard Reports This manual describes reports available in MPM. Modular Format This manual has been written using a modular format. Most topics are presented on two- facing pages in the manual. A topic begins in the upper left corner of the left page and ends in the lower right corner of the right page. Screen captures and other figures are always included on the two pages. In the rare instance when a topic extends past two pages, the symbol is displayed at the bottom of the right page. Topics may have subtopics, and these are also presented in a two-page module. There are a number of advantages to this format. All the information you need to understand a topic is presented on two facing pages. You do not have to flip back and forth through several pages. If you want to skip a topic, you simply turn the page. The next topic starts in the upper left corner. Manual Conventions We believe the typographic conventions used in a manual should be self-explanatory. Below we note only those conventions that we feel you may not have seen before. Italics Italics are used for the titles of manuals, topics, and sub-topics when these are referenced within the text of the manual. ©2008 Deltek, Inc. All rights reserved. MPM Getting Started 7 Ctrl+X This notation indicates that you should hold down the first key while pressing the second key. File|Save The menu name and command names are separated by a vertical bar. You would read the example shown as “select the Save command under the File menu.” This symbol indicates that a topic continues for more than two pages. This does not happen often, but there are a few exceptions. Terminology In a field as complex as project management, there are many technical terms used. Unfortunately, terms are not standard across all organizations and companies. To familiarize yourself with the terminology adopted for the MPM product, you might want to take a few minutes to review the glossary in Appendix A of the MPM Projects manual. Below are several terms used in the instructions. Click This term means to move the mouse pointer to an object and quickly press and release the left mouse button once. Double-click This term means to move the mouse pointer to an object and quickly press and release the left mouse button twice. For example, you double-click on icons to open Task windows. If MPM responds as if you only clicked once, you need to try again clicking twice faster. Choose You choose an item to carry out an action; for example, you choose the option on a menu. Online Help Complete online Help is available. You can open Help from the Help menu, by pressing F1, or by clicking on Help buttons in dialog boxes. ©2008 Deltek, Inc.

    2. Maples is really interested in having the Mac presented in a positive light at the conference ( as are we all I think). Can we see a copy of the agenda. I don’t think this warrants specific Mac sessions or anything as detailed as that, just some extension of what we discussed today regarding as proposed time frame foF implementation. Maples was interested in distributing 9ome sort of document that would "commit" us to doing this on the Mac. Do either of you have an opinion on that? If we can’t produce something that is solid in this short ti~e frame, I am in favor of not distributing anything. Random info is clearly not what we need floating around at this point. Please advise on this issue. Thanks, Lisa From greqw Fri Nov 30 10:59:44 1990 To: anthonys darrylr Cc: cameronm tonyw Subject: Re: OLE Date: Wed Apt 29 16:48:08 PDT 1992 Date: Fri Nov 30 11:42:20 1990 I will talk with Tony again. The bottomline was that we were not completely convinced that the API changes would he sufficient and would not require changes later after the initial release of the libraries. Therefore, we did not change the existing APIS. If TonyW did not let PhilipL k~1ow when we made the decision to stay with the existing APIs’, then we screwed up. I am willing to jerk the ISVs around if we can convince ourselves that the link management design will be effective. We do not have much time.

    Windows Insider podcast Episode 35 Host: Jason Howard Guests: William Devereux - Senior Program Manager, Edge Charles Taylor - Program Manager, Windows Eric Papamarcos, Senior Program Manager WINDOWS INSIDER PODCAST – EPISODE 35 – REDEFINING THE FAMILIAR [MUSIC] JASON HOWARD: Welcome to the Windows Insider podcast, where leaders from Microsoft and Windows Insiders discuss tech trends, careers and innovation. I'm your host, Jason Howard. This is Episode 34, Redefining the Familiar. But first, if you're not yet a Windows Insider, head over to our website, Insider.Windows.com and register for free. Insiders get access to upcoming Windows features before they're released to the public, plus exclusive opportunities to experience all Microsoft has to offer. All right, on to the show. In our last episode, the Start of Something Different, we took a walk down memory lane to look at the 25-year anniversary of Windows 95, where the Start menu and taskbar features were introduced. Time marches on, of course, and this month, we'll peek behind the curtain at the modern evolution of these features. We have a great group of guests joining us this month with Eric Papamarcos discussing Start menu, and the dynamic duo of Charles Taylor and William Devereux to share insights into taskbar. These features have seen significant changes across two and a half decades of development. So, as we examine the philosophy driving their modernization, we'll also explore the craftsmanship aspect, which provides the basis of a fresh look and feel while retaining the core functionality Windows users have come to know and love.
