RE: MS Project 2007

Hi Stuart

Project remembers the view it was last saved in. So you could apply your filters and view before saving the file and asking for input.

You might want to record a Macro to quickly switch views and apply filters - Tools > Macro > Record new macro.

In our advanced course we look at creating views, filters and groups. You can find out more at

I hope this helps - do let us know how you get on.

Kind regards,
Andrew

RE: MS Project 2007

Hi Stuart

We looked at:

Setting the project properties File > Properties
Setting the start date Project > Project information
Adjusting the calendar > Tools > Change working time

We also changed the way non-working time is displayed on the calendar by double clicking on once of the grey columns that represent a weekend or by going to Format > Timescale > Non-working time and choosing the option to Draw in front of task bar.

You might want to add other settings to this list. For example turning off Effort Driven Scheduling for all future tasks by going to Tools > Options > Schedule and removing the tick from New tasks are effort driven.

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

Kind regards,
Andrew
