Custom filters added to toolbar?

[RWR]

I have created several custom filters. Is it possible to display the filter
or a button for the filter on a toolbar? There are some inexperienced people
using the project and I am trying to make the filters easily accessible.

RWR,

The custom filters are available, as the standard one, in the drop down
Filter list.
If its not enough friendly, you can write a small VBA macro using the
FilterApply method :
Sub MyFilter()
FilterApply Name:="My First Filter"
End Sub

Then assign this VBA macro to a button in a tool bar.
Tell us if you need more information.

Hi RWR,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup

You need to record macros applying the filters and then use the customize
toolbar facility to create buttons. You might like to have a look at my
series on Microsoft Project in the TechTrax ezine, particularly #16 on
