Hi,
I have recently started using Project 2007 and find I am somewhat bending it
to my needs... I work in a large theatre, and have been asked to use Project
to show the allocation of working hours for people in our production
workshops (Construction, Paint, Props etc). It would be really useful if,
alongside the Gantt bars for each production, I could have a timeline for
that show with key dates showing, eg 'Design finish', 'Fit up', 'Press Night'
etc. The only way I can find so far to do this is using milestones - but I
can only list each milestone as a separate task and therefore it occupies a
separate line. I will eventually have around 12-15 key dates for each
production, so using milestones is currently taking up too much space. Is
there any other way I could do this, either by using a timeline or somehow
putting a marker on a series of particular days in the calendar?
Grateful for all suggestions! Thanks, Rachel
