How can I insert a new task in project if the option is grayed ?

[Tommy-Project 2007 Novice]

I am trying to insert a new task into the middle of an existing chart, but
the option to insert a new task is grayed out. It will let me add one to the
bottom of the chart works, but how can Insert lines in the middle?

Hi Tommy,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup

From the Gantt Chart view, click where you want the task to go. Then select
Insert/New Task or click the Insert button on your keyboard. Does that
work? You could also try right-clicking the ID number of the task below
where you want it to go and select New Task.

You can't Insert if the chart is Grouped. Remove Grouping by selecting
Project-Group by-No Group.
