keep track of task duration changes

[Fei]

I use MS Project 2007

I have a 3 months project plan, many of the tasks will have their duration
changed from time to time. At end of the project, how can I tell which tasks
have had their duration changed?

thanks in advance

Hi,

Try saving a baseline (Tools, Tracking menu) then the tracking Gantt Chart
shows all changes.

Fei,
I suggest you use the Notes field to keep a running log of changes. But
I have to ask, why do you care about duration changes? Duration is
simply a measure of time and doesn't by itself accomplish anything. Any
normal project will experience changes - that's the nature of dynamic
live scheduling. A much more important set of parameters is changes to
the Work field and consequently the Cost field.
