[Year 12 IT Apps] Project Management Software

[Mark Kelly]

MS Access for Project Management?  Interesting.  How do you make it 
work? ;-)

For simple Gantt charts, Excel is OK, but kids need to add dependency 
arrows, milestones etc by hand.

The open source http://sourceforge.net/projects/openproj/ looks interesting.

"OpenProj by Projity is a desktop replacement of Microsoft Project. 
OpenProj has equivalent functionality, a familiar user interface and 
even opens existing MSProject files. OpenProj is interoperable with 
Project, with a Gantt Chart and PERT chart etc."

You'll know when we are officially a civilised race: our schools have 
all the money they need and the Air Force has to run a chook raffle to 
buy a new bomber.
