SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project, when you attempt to sort assignment fields in Resource Usage view or Task Usage view, a field that does not have a value will not be separated from the fields that have values of Zero or No. All of these results will be grouped together.

NOTE: Zero is a valid value for numeric fields; No is a valid value for a Flag field.

CAUSE

Microsoft Project treats Zero, No, and blank cells as equivalent values.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Microsoft Project listed above.
