RE: Project

Hi Paul, thanks for your query. To set times in Project, go to the Tools, Options menu and an the View page select a date format that also displays the time. Remember that you should really allow Project to schedule specific times depending on the calendar and the task durations, and it might be a better idea to put in a "dummy" task (Final Mix?) to run to a specific time.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Ms project tip:

Autofit column width – Project (all versions)

a. Highlight the column or columns you wish to alter the width of.
b. Double click the dividing line between the columns. This dividing line is the break between the columns on the column headers (grey buttons showing the column letter at the top of each column). When you hover your mouse over one of these dividing lines the point will change and show an arrow pulling a line in two directions. When you have this mouse pointer you should double click to get Project to automatically set the column width to fit the contents of the column (autofit)
