I have a task that must always start on a Monday. Help?

I have several tasks in my planning that must always start on a specific day
of the week e.g. Monday. This is irrespective of which day the predecessor
ends. In other words if the predecessor ends on a Wednesday the next task
must start on the following Monday.

Hi,

Create a new (base) calendar with 1 hour working time in the middle of
Sunday, not a minute more
Create a task with a duration of one hour, assign the Sunday calendar to it.
Make this Sundaty task the successor of the predecessor, and the predecessor
of the successor.
The latter will now start on Monday morning.

To keep things more clear. Make sure the "1 hour" tasks are the only ones
using the new base calander. Otherwise, Project creates the assumption that
all tasks may perform work on Sunday for 1 hour.

Also, make sure you do not assign any resources or any real work to the
Sunday task, it is just a place holder.

Jan - You are the man! I would never have thought to implement it this way.
No wonder why you are an MVP>
