I tried your suggestion and I could not get the actuals to agree with what I was putting in.
the example I used

I have the calandar set to a 6 hour work day.
baseline start 11/01/10 baseline finish 11/03/10 baseline work 18
actual start 11/01/10 act finish 11/02/10 actual hours 9

if I enter the act start of 11/01/10 and the act finish of 11/02/10 and the act work at 9, the act work changes to 12 and the % comp is 100. if I change the act work back to 9, the act finish goes to NA and the % comp goes to 75.
I am beginning to think that project can't do estimates verus actual tracking.
