I have the same version of Microsoft Project that others are using. I just did an extensive test on the features in the Multiple Task Information dialog, and can confirm that NOTHING is working in this dialog. I tried changing the Duration for a block of tasks. No go. I tried changing the constraint type to As Soon as Possible to a block of tasks, each of which has a SNET constraint applied, and no go again. It is obvious that Microsoft has introduced a bug into Microsoft Project, and this bug NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I will report this bug to my contacts within Microsoft to see if they can get the fix moving. Thanks so much to all for reporting this.
I am using Professional 2019.
The bulk edit feature was working, but (2) weeks ago I opened Project to edit a schedule and now the bulk edit doesn't change my calendar. I have no idea what happened to cause it to stop working.

Kdekruif,
Try this. Save the file as XML. Then re-open the XML file in Project. Note, you will lose any custom formatting with this process. This process is the first order go to for clearing file bloat or corruption.
If it does not help, create a new project with just a few tasks and try the bulk edit on the Task Calendar field. Does that work?
