RE: milestones

Hi Cath,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

You can hover over the Milestone marker and drag it to a date in the future. Project will add a Start no earlier than constraint.

However, it is unlikely you would do this. Milestone tasks are usually linked to a predecessor task which means that if the predecessor task changes the milestone date would automtically update.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Given two address lists that include many exact duplicates, can I get Excel to hightlight those that are NOT duplicated between the two lists? Can this be done without sorting the lists? Thanks RH
