When I open a task (or a number of tasks) for editing in Project, the start
date reverts to today's date (and the end date moves with it, respecting the
duration). This does not happen in the VS IDE or if the task is opened in
Excel. How can I stop this from happening?

Also, the start and end dates are disabled in the VS IDE, so I cannot edit
them there. How can I enable them for editing?

See the Posting in the Project Newsgroup for a discussion of the problem and
a workaround by changing the field mapping to allow changes to Start and
Finish to be published from Project to TFS.
