When you enter a start date and finish date. How do you set a time frame on
the start date. For example, The start date is june 7, but I don't want it to
start until 11 am?
needhelp,
First of all you shouldn't be entering Start and Finish dates directly,
it sets constraints on each task and defeats the purpose of having a
dynamic schedule (i.e. real life). Except for a few isolated cases (more
on that later), the Start date of each task is determined either by the
overall Project Start Date (Project/Project Information) or by linkages
between tasks (Predecessors). Task Finish dates will be calculated by
Project based on the user entry in the estimated Duration field.
In some cases the start of a task may be independent of any other task
and it may not necessarily start on the Project Start Date. In those
cases, a Start date can be directly entered by the user and it can
include a time. An example would be:
6/6/05 11:00:00 AM
If you want to actually see the time in the Start field, go to
Tools/Options/View tab and use a Date Format that includes the time of
day.
Hope this helps.
