RE: MS Project

Hi Angus

Thanks for your question. You can change the format of critical tasks by switching to Tracking Gantt view and from the menu choosing Bar Styles. The dialog box that appears shows you the formats for the various objects appearing on your chart. You will find an entry marked Critical. Select it from the list and in the lower half of the dialog you and change the colour and shape formats for that object.

I hope this is helpful - let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew

Ms project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
