color-code a task bar to a resource

Not one-by-one, of course: but whenever Thom is assigned a task, the work bar
is blue, whenever Bill is assigned a task the work-bar is green

Hi Tom,

Firstly: logically, only as long as you have one resource per task!
Secondly, the number of colors is limited...

Customise flag1 to be true if the resource is Bill
Customise flag2 to be true if the resource is Fred
Customise flag3 to be true if the resource is Annie
Customise flag4 to be true if the resource is Winston

etc.

Now in Format, Bar Style, add a line for Flag1 tasks, then for Flag2 tasks
etc.
