A new project appears in the project list in the left pane.

The default project directory is [Sharepoint]\Projects\[ProjectName]. If you
change the default project directory, your changes are saved and used the next
time you create a project. Example: If you change the project directory to
C:\Projects, the next time you create a new project, the project directory will be
C:\Projects\[ProjectName].
Status

In the Standard and Professional Editions, a project can be Open or Closed. The
only way to change project status in those editions is in this field.
With Enterprise Management Server, a project can have any of nine statuses.
Typically, you should use the Project Management tab to maintain project
status.
