When pasting tasks from an old to a new project, if the Project Summary Task is also copied, upon pasting it becomes a regular task.
Can this be promoted back to a Project Summary Task?

Hi David

The project summary task is created for you by Project. As such you won't be able to promote a task to become the summary task. I think your best approach would just be to rename the newly created project summary task and delete the one which became a regular task. Sorry I couldn't help you further. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew

Project tip:

Formatting Bar Text

To display notes or resource initials on the Gantt chart bars, choose Format, Bar Styles and the Text tab. Select the position you want to show the text i.e. Top or Inside etc, then choose the field name you are looking for from the drop down arrow. Type the first letter of the name to get quickly to the top of the letter range. Click OK.
