Thanks for your answer but what if I'm using MS Project for the Web?

Well, if you are using Project for the Web, then neither of the options I shared will work for you, as those features are not available in Project for the Web. Out of curiosity, what is driving your need to delete existing tasks and replace them with new tasks? I ask because there are no features in Project for the Web that will help you with this need. Let us know and we will try to help you.
