Manage Projects

If you have the "Manage all projects" permission, then you can use the Manage Projects window to view and edit the properties and security settings of all the projects in the database. To do this, choose Project > Management > Manage Projects.

This displays a list of all the projects that currently exist for the database. Note that in this window, you can edit the properties and security settings of a project or delete a project even when the project is open or in use. The user who has the project open will see the changes you have made when the database refreshes (the refresh happens automatically whenever the user makes a change, such as closing a window, selecting a different item, etc.).

The Ribbon in the Manage Projects window contains the following commands:

Project

  Close closes the Manage Projects window.

 Edit Project Properties allows you to view and edit the properties of the selected project(s).

 Delete Project deletes the selected project(s). There is undo for delete.

Security

  Lock Project moves the selected project(s) into the Locked heading of the project list. When a project is locked, all database users (including the user who locked the project) will have read-only access to the project. In addition, a locked project cannot be deleted or have its properties and public/private status edited. To unlock project(s), choose Unlock Project. See also Lock and Unlock project.

 Make Private moves the selected project(s) into the Private heading of the project list. To move private project(s) to the Public heading, choose Make Public. See also Private and Public projects.

 Change Owner allows you to assign a different database user to be the owner for the selected project(s).

 Project Security opens the Project Properties window with the Security tab active, where you can specify the user accounts that can view/modify the selected project. This command is available only for public projects in secure databases. For a detailed discussion on how to configure the security setting for the projects in your repository, see the Repository-Level vs. Project-Level Security topic.

Check Out

 Undo Check Out discards all changes made to a checked out project and restores it to the state it was at the time it was checked out. See Check In or Check Out Projects.

Excel

 Send to Excel exports the data currently displayed in the Manage Projects window to an Excel spreadsheet.
