Microsoft Project Refresh - Set up a schedule to refresh from a list (using nicknames)

This is the preferred method for refreshing from multiple Microsoft Project (or XML) schedules.

It's possible to use several Microsoft Project (or XML) schedules to update a single presentation Milestones schedule.  In this case, symbols and rows are tagged using file "nicknames".
