March 5, 2019, update for Project 2016 (KB4462198)

Improvements and fixes

This update contains the following improvements and fixes:

• Adds support for the new Venezuelan currency symbol in Project 2016.

• When you synchronize projects from Project 2016 to a SharePoint site, Project crashes. The crash occurs when a given task predecessor or successor field has 255 characters.

• If you try to change the actual work value on a summary task when protected actual work is enabled, Project 2016 may freeze or crash.

• If you enter a timephased actual work value for a material resource that is assigned to a fixed duration task, the Work and Assignment Units on the assignment don't display correct values. For example, assume that resource units (work) equals 100 and you enter the timephased actual work value as 23.27. The Work and Assignment Units display 99.94 instead of staying at the expected value of 100.

• When you open projects in Project 2016, you receive the following message:
  The operation cannot be completed because the source file contains invalid project data or the total number of rows would exceed the limit of 1,048,000 rows in a project. Validate the data in the source file, insert fewer rows, delete some rows, or consider dividing your project into subprojects to provide more space for tasks and resources.
