RE: Gantt View

Hi Karen,

Thank you for your question.

In order to show the milestones only on the Gantt chart you can use filtering.

Navigate to the Project menu and select filtered for. Choose Milestones from the list of filters. The Gantt bars will then be hidden and the Milestone tasks will remain.

To remove the filter go to Project, Filtered for, and then All Tasks.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Ms project tip:

Keep constraining dates to a minimum

As far as possible avoid fixing the dates of your tasks. For example try to steer of clear dragging task bars in the Gantt chart to move them on the timeline or entering dates directly into the Start / Finish fields.

Date constraints such as these limit Microsoft Project's ability to automatically adjust your project whenever you add, remove or modify the duration of your tasks. Instead use the logic in your task dependencies that link your tasks to enable Project to calculate the start and finish dates for you.
