Suddenly users cannot edit others' project tasks!

Suddenly users cannot edit others' project tasks!

We have been using Project for a couple of years very successfully.

Suddenly today, our users seem unable to edit their colleagues tasks, close them off, reassign them to others etc - when they have been able to do this previously. I am the super admin and can do this, but even my co director who is admin cannot.

Why is this please? What have you suddenly changed?
