Edit Subproject Access in Master Projects

Use the Subproject tab on the Project Properties dialog box to change access to the subproject from read/write to read-only in a master project. When selected, any changes you make to the subproject from the master project are not saved when you close the master project.

Note: This tab only appears on the Project Properties dialog box for subprojects that were inserted as an entire project into a master project.

To modify subproject access in a master project

  1. In a view that displays the task detail pane, right-click the subproject (proxy task) and select Modify from the shortcut menu.

    The Description tab on the Project Properties dialog box opens.

  2. Click the Subproject tab.

    The subproject's name displays in the Project field.

  3. Clear the Read-only check box, and click OK.

    The Project Properties dialog box closes.
