  • At least two of the projects inserted into the consolidated project are sharing resources from the same resource pool.

  • The consolidated project is not the resource pool.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, open the resource pool before you open the consolidated project.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
