How can I change the weekends on my projects to be Friday And Saturday
instead of Saturday and Sunday?

How can I change the weekends on my projects to be Friday And Saturday
instead of Saturday and Sunday?

In the Standard Calendar, click on the header for Sunday, select "Non-
Working". Then click on the header for Friday, select "Non-working".

Hope this helps in your world.

My mistake, for Sunday, select "Working".

Hello J Young,

In addition to Dave's post detailing how to change Friday to a
nonworking day and and Sunday to a working day, you may also want to
change the "Week starts on " information on the Calendar tab of the
Tools > Options dialog box.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi,

In my 2007 this doesn't work like that. Does it for you?

Hello Jan,

I still show the "Week starts on" option on the Calendar tab and of
Tools > Options and changing it does change the week ending dates for
timescaled data.

I'm not sure what release the OP was using, so if he/she is using
Project 2007, Dave's directions on changing working time will need to
be tweaked to fit the 2007 release.

Hi Julie,

That was not my poinyt, sorry.
It is that in Change Working time in 2007 you no longer can select day of
week headers and change there.
You have to define an exception, go through details...

Pity, pity, pity. It used to be so simple.

Ah, sorry for the confusion. Changing days to non-working time in
2007 is just as you describe -- no better on this side of Redmond
either

You're right, my bad. Forgot about 2007 being different.
