Yeah, something's goofy with your report syntax, but I've just kind of
used the TJ3 report from their tutorial and tweaked it. I attached my
default report file which just gives me a gantt chart. I don't really
use the resource allocation much since I'm on a team for which I'm not
the manager of people's time and don't really have an idea of what %
of their overall load is dedicated to the project we work on together.
I'm interested in those assigned to a task and durations/estimates...
but not really what their overall load is.

Anyway, the .tji attached has a lot of stuff commented out that was in
the actual tj3 tutorial file. I left it for you so you can see some of
the other functionality they use, but I've turned it off as I'm just
not there yet and don't have time to learn more at the moment.


Hope that helps!
John
