How to use Microsoft Project to Manage Projects with TFS
Sanjay Narang just published in his blog a killer post about how to integrate Microsoft Project and TFS.
I keep getting questions and comments for my article, “Combine Microsoft Project and Visual Studio Team System for a One-two Punch of Productivity”. The article is available at:

So, I thought of creating this blog entry, so that I can answer those questions here. The article covers the following topics:
- Problems in day to day Project Management activities
- How VSTS centralized architecture addresses those problems
- How do you create a new Project Plan and connect to VSTS
- How do you work with project tasks (creating, updating, deleting, resolving conflicts etc.)
- Column Mappings and Areas and Iterations
- Comparison with Microsoft Project Server
