Task Start/End based on Predecessors

S

Sue T.

Does anyone know how I can configure a task so that its start date is based
on the start date of one task and its end date is based on the end of another
task?

I have tried to put both predecessor tasks in with the start one having a
start/start dependency and the end task with finish/finish - no luck. I am
really looking for MSP to calculate the duration and have the auto
adjustments be made if I have to adjust the predecessor tasks.
