Ava has attended:
Project Intro Intermediate course

Milestones

Is it possible to set a duration on the number of days it is estimated for a task to be completed on a task list (duration) without the Milestone turning into a bar

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Milestones

Hi Ava

Yes you can. Create your task with the required duration then double click it to go to task information and on the advanced tab check the box to show as milestone. Project redraws your task as a milestone followed by an exended dependency arrow to reflect the duration you entered.

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

kind regards,

Andrew

 

Ms project tip:

Use Autofill in MS Project

a. Complete 1st entry
b. Select cell with entry to be copied
c. Click & drag autofill handle over the lines to also contain the same information. (the autofill handle is the little black square in the bottom right hand corner of the heavy lack outline on the selected cell)
