I'm sure this is a standard 'RTM' question; I'm new to OP.

I created a task group (1.3.1.2.13) and three tasks within it. They're not connected to anything. I initially assigned a resource to them (me), but removed that and it makes no difference with the issue (see next). They don't show any dependencies in the Gantt chart.

1) Why is their start date set to the project's start date, Sep. 6 (which is in the past), and how can I have new tasks not have a past start date set?

Help: "By default, new tasks are scheduled as early as constraints allow. This means the task is placed at the very earliest time possible, taking into consideration start and end constraints, and dependencies on other tasks. Resource availability is not taken into consideration, so resources may end up overutilized."

2) Why is the reset button not available for use on these tasks?

Thanks

Bob
