critical path/ tasks

[andy]

Hi hope someone can help,

when using the gantt view "entry" - it is possible to pull up a task form
view where you are able to select resources/predecessors, etc,
when using this task form to display predecessors, / successors is there a
way that i can show the % c/t bar as well - this would allow me to see not
only the tasks but the status of each predecessor as some of my projects have
more than one dependancy and without viewing each of them you cannot
determine where the delay is

thanks in anticipation

Not directly. However, I do know that in Rod Gil's book there is a chapter
that contains a form that will allow you to do exactly what you want. It is
easy to modify the form to include items like %Complete, etc. I use the form
very frequently.

Rod's book is available at http://www.projectvbabook.com/

I don't mean to sound like a commercial, but the answer is right there....

andy,

In the form you can double click the predecessor's name to quickly open the
task information dialog box and see the % complete from there. May cause some
mouse fatigue but it will get you the information <grin>.
