I need to change my schedule to reflect total calendar days total.

[AL]

I need to change the way MS Project reports total project duration.
The default reports reflect total working days, I need to report the
durations in calendar days.

AL,
Insert a Date(x) field with a formula like this one:

DateDiff("d";[Start];[Finish];2)*[Minutes Per Day]

Sorry,

But I don't know what a 'Date(x)' field or 'DataDiff' is. I've looked in a
few MS Project books, the MS Knowledge base and I've not found anything that
addresses this topic. Can you explain and/or give me a reference on this
topic?

thanks in advance,

I don't understand how to use your answer. I've looked in a few MS Project
2003 books, the web, and the MS Knowledge base, but I still cannot find any
references to understand how to implement your advice. Can you point me to a
reference that will explain this to me?

thanks in advance,
