Help define overflow tasks for me

[Pete]

I ran out a calender view of my tasks and the last page shows several tasks
as "overflow tasks". I have linked all the tasks start to finish and the
dates in Gantt view do not show any conflict??

There's only so much space to print tasks on a given date in the Calendar
view. "Overflow" just means the date box is full. Your tasks are still
scheduled as they should be so it's not something you need to be overly
concerned about. Just the printout doesn't look as tidy as it might.

Hi Pete,

The overflow tasks on the printed copy of the Calendar view are just tasks
that won't fit on the printed page. About 3-4 tasks per day is all that
will fit.

You may be able to squeeze a few more tasks on the printed page by modifying
margins or changing the formatting of the bars to lines to Format>Bar
Styles.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Julie

I prepared my Gantt chart and looked at the calendar view. A few activities are not visible in the calendar view but are seen in the overflow task. Please suggest how to see these in the calendar, too. Also, please advise me on how to set the overflow task in ascending and descending order of dates.
