View task dependencies

[simon-SE]

How do I get a view filtered, only to show the tasks that have dependencies?
I can not find a way to filter my view on the MS Project to show me only the
tasks that are linked together in the same Gantt chart? I would highly
appreciate if someone could help me with that.

Hi,

Make a new filter (Project menu, Filtered For..., New) with as conditions
Predecessors does not equal (leave value
empty)
Or Successors does not equal (leave value
empty)

Hi Jan,

Thank you for your respond, it worked like a charm! )

I was how ever wondering, is there any way I can get the similar visibily on
the resouce usage view? so that for example person A that has been assigned
with a certain task can easily see if she would need to expect a persons B to
finish his task, before peron A being able to start with her task...!? (i.e
task on person A has a dependency on the task on Person B)

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Simon

Hi,

This is quite a different story.
First, a task can have multiple predecessors
Second, what you see in the Resource Usage view are not tasks but
assignments, they do not have the predecessors property.
Sure, one can develop VBA code to copy but I think we better look for
another solution.
In www.masamiki.com (website of a fellow MVP, Jack Dahlgren) find teh Trace
macro and look at the results: that may be of help (though it does not
exactly what you ask for)

Hope this helps,
