recurring tasks and displaying them in order of occurrence

[JJ]

Hi I am wanting to display my recurring tasks (there is a bi-weekly meeting
for the duration of the project) at the date that they occur, rather than in
one block, is this possible?
Thanks

Just click on the little plus mark to the left of the recurring task name.
You'll see it expand down to show all the individual meetings in order, each
on their own line.

Thanks Steve, I understood that, what I wondered was, can each meeting be
put throughout the project in the right order without me manually having to
go and do it through out the project plan, so that I don't just have one big
block of meetings?

Oh, you mean interleaved with the rest of the tasks so everything is in
start date order? No, sorry, doesn't do that. Since they are "children" of
what is effectively a summary task, they'll stick with their parent.
