**HELP ** :) Need to shrink part of Gantt Chart ..

[GanttGirl123]

Hi .. I'm sort of new to project and need to figure out how to shrink/collaps
part of the Gantt chart. I need to see only Jan - March 08, and my project
started in Sept 07, so ... it automatically shows me the entire Gantt and I
haven't been able to "shrink or hide" various columns from Sept 07 through
Jan 08 to see only the last few bars on the Gantt... Does anyone know how to
do this? Pls respond ..
Thanks

Hello GanttGirl123,

You cannot selectively "shrink" portions of the Gantt chart. You can
choose to print only a specific date range through the File > Print
command by setting the from and to dates for the date range. You can
temporarily hide tasks (rows) by filtering the project and that will
show fewer rows.

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

THANK YOU, Julie... You made my day. The File>Print date range option worked
wonderful. Exactly what I needed!
