I want to do manning projections using MS Project and I need to be able to
assign manhours to each task. How do I do this?

ll2c001 --

Assuming you have added resources in the Resource Sheet view of your
project, apply the Gantt Chart view and then click Window - Split to apply
the Task Entry view. Select a task in the upper pane (Gantt Chart), then
select a resource in the lower pane (Task Form), and enter Units and Work
for that resource. Click the OK button to complete the assignment. Click
the Next button to advance to the next task in the project and continue the
process. Hope this helps.

TechTrax ezine, particularly #5 on resources, at this site:

(Perhaps you'd care to rate the article before leaving the site, :)
Thanks.)

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)
