Hi Rick,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

You can only change the shading/colour of the non-working time.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at this web address: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)

Hi Rick C,

You might find that Gantt row lines drawn horizontally helps.
Try Format > Gridlines. In the lines to change, choose Gantt
Rows. Set a line type and interval as desired.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
