Conditional formatting

Is it possible to apply conditional formatting specified by the user to the Gantt Chart i.e. if project is off track by a certain % can I apply certain colors?

RE: Conditional formatting

Hi Katrin

It is possible to do this. For sophisticated results you would need to customise fields and formats and possibly filters. We cover these topics in our Advanced training. However without these features you can use built in features such as format > text styles to highlight tasks that meet (built in) criteria.

I hope this is helpful - do let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew

MS Project tip:

Avoid Accidental Constraints

The initial default table is the Entry table. Enter a task name and duration, but do not enter start or finish dates. Form the plan using links, predecessors. Typing dates introduces constraints. To remove these constraints, double click on a task, and on the Advanced page of Task Information set the constraint back to As Soon As Possible (all other options are there too.)
