Hi Martin

The fastest way to view your critical path is to swtich to the Tracking Gantt view which still shows your Gantt chart but changes the bars of your critical tasks to red.

Alternatively click on the Gantt chart wizard icon (the magic wand at the end of the formatting toolbar) and choose the Critical Path option. This will reformat your regular Gantt chart to show critical task bars in red.

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

Kind regards,

Andrew
