deadline indicator

[jim]

is there a way to show a deadline across the whole project? Something like
the today indicator? I would like to see a straight line down the whole
chart maybe colored red???

Try: Add the tracking tool bar, with the icon "add a progress" bar ...
this what you want?

something like that but how do i get it go straight down the chart? Say the
date is 1/16/06, I would like to see the straight redline down the chart on
that date??

Go to Format-Gridlines and define a line for the Current Date.

I would like to see the same concept as the current date, i.e. a sstraight
line. What I need is a deadline "straight line" if today is 12/5 and the
deadline is 1/15, i want to see the 1/15 date as a straight line down the
chart. Is this possible??

Hi Jim,

You could draw a vertical line using the drawing tools, and then tie it to
the date.

graphically this is what i wanted. Is there a way to do this and tie it to a
certain date or deadline?
