Hi,

A task cannot go past its finish time since as long as it runs it is not
finshed :)
It can however go beyond its originally planned finish time.
That one in turn can be saved into Baseline Finish (Tools, Tracking, Save
Baseline)
Now customize a flag field such that it goes to Yes when Finish>Baseline
Finish
Then add a bar to the bar stylmes which is red when that flag field is on.

And before all read
