Caution: pm60 cannot recover forgotten passwords. We recommend using a third-party password vault application to securly store passwords if you are concerned about forgetting them.

Why can't I see all of Excel's usual commands and settings?pm60 has been built using custom workbook ribbons, menus and features.
The workbook has been built for project management use.
As such, not all default Excel commands and settings are available.
This is intentional due to the interruption that certain default settings will have on the pm60 application.
Bonus: Adding your own additional blank worksheets into your workbook is an option with pm60. Doing so will allow you to access more of Excel's default settings and features.

Will pm60 release version updates?pm60 will look to release updated versions of the application over time.
We will keep you informed.
As the application has being built via Excel, automatic updates cannot be made to your existing version.
