98 rely on the TeamInbox. Team members log in to the TeamInbox, which is hosted on a Web server, to view their assignments in a task list and record status information. Project managers who don't have direct access to their company Web servers, can set up their own - Microsoft Project 98 includes the Microsoft Personal Web Server . The Web-based Task List provides team members with a single place to keep track of all their project tasks. Once the Web server is set up, it can be shared by multiple project managers.
Resources then track all of their project-related tasks in the same place.
With Microsoft Project 98, you and your team can communicate with those working remotely and even other companies, just as easily as with people in the office. Enhanced communication also means team members can spend less time searching for old e-mail or determining project status and instead concentrate on the project at hand. Simply select Save as HTML from the File menu. Then access the links directly from within the project file by clicking on them. Shared with Microsoft Office 97, the Web toolbar provides standard browser functionality to navigate hyperlinked documents easily.
