Wow - Outlook Integration with MS Project 2007! Situation: You want to get a lot more out of MS Project with less effort A few weeks ago, the MS Project folks gave our team a briefing on the 2007 version that is now a part of MS Office. There were a lot of terrific improvements. I'll touch on the EPM (UMT) components later, but the most important thing that they've done (IMHO) is integrating Project with Outlook. There's also a timesheet component that's worth considering as part of the whole Outlook-centered world Microsoft has created for you. What if... - your project team interacted with you directly from Outlook, where they live every day? - small project leads werent forced to use full blown MS Project, when they just want to work with a list of tasks? I think you end up with better data, less administrative overhead, and tools that fit what you really need. The graphic below shows you how an MS Project Web Access task looks within Outlook 2007.

I would certainly agree Dave. I attended the Phoenix Launch event from Microsfot last week and was really delighted with the whole package. I had been exposed to some of the new stuff via MPA (Microsoft Project Association) Phoenix chapter. The second coolest thing they did has to be moving so much of ability to enter data to PWA. Great stuff. Now if I can just get past the infrstructure guy.... Tuesday, January 23, 2007 10:46:34 PM EST
