How can I draw a line from the task name field to the task bar?

I am trying to make my schedule easier to read. I am trying to basically
make rows out of each task so you don't have to use a ruler to find where the
bar is. Can anyone help?

Another option is to put the task name next to the Gantt Bar. You can
put it to the right, left, above, below or even inside the bar. The
easiest way to do this is to run the Gantt Chart Wizard (tool near the
right end of the Standard Toolbar). If you go through the first few
steps, then click on the second occurence called "Custom", it will give
you a lot of options of what to put next to the bars, including Task
Name.

Hope this helps in your world.
