critical and non-critical activities

[nf26]

In the network view, my tasks are not changing to the preset critical and
non-critical styles. Any ideas why this ins't working properly?
Thanks.

Critical path is much easier and more obvious to understand in the Gantt
Chart. View the Gantt Chart and see what the critical path is. There may
only be one task that's critical and all others are not. You can select
Format, GanttChartWizard to format critical bars as red.

Adding to Rod's answer if you have entered start and finish dates for your
tasks instead of allowing Project to calculate them, it's very possible that
only the latest to finish task in your plan would be critical.

Hi

the styles are setup on a view - by - view basis ... so you need to be in
the network view and then setup the styles .. If you have done this already
then the only other idea i have is that the "boxes" have been formatted
individually which over-rides the default styles, so you might need to
select them, right mouse click on them and choose "format box" and then
choose reset.

Hope this helps

Cheers
