show calendar on task bar?

[theintern]

Is there a way to show that a resource is working on a different calendar in
the Gantt view? right now when i change a resource to a different calendar
there is no way to know that if i'm just looking at the Gantt view. it'd be
nice if i could put the calendar as text within the bar or something.

thanks!

Hi Scott,

Sorry, no. The resource base calendar is not a field which "crosses
over" from the resource side of Project to the task side. However,
a field which is available which does appear on both sides is the
[Phonetics] field. So, add the phonetics field to the resource
sheet and copy/paste the base calendar field data.

Then add the [Resource Phonetics] field to the task sheet. This
will show data for each resource assigned, so if you have 4
resources assigned you'll see the base calendar for each resource.

You'll need to remember to recopy/paste back to the phonetics field
if you made changes.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
