RE: reviewing other peoples projects

Hi Sue

Thanks for your question. You might want to check the relationships between the tasks. Are they all one type of link (eg Finish to Start) if so does that make sense for the project?

Check to see if there are any constraints on tasks - again are they necessary or would linking be a better way to model the position of the tasks on the chart?

Finally take a look at the critical path (View > Tracking Gantt) to see if there is any slack in the plan or if everything is critical (red). Double check the estimated durations for the critical tasks as they are dictating when your project will end.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Use Autofill in MS Project

a. Complete 1st entry
b. Select cell with entry to be copied
c. Click & drag autofill handle over the lines to also contain the same information. (the autofill handle is the little black square in the bottom right hand corner of the heavy lack outline on the selected cell)
