Resource Macro

How do I write a macro that easily allows different users to see the tasks they are wokring on? I know you can filter in the Resource Usage view but I would like to have a pop-up where you can enter a name that is then used to filter, so as to not having to show everything to everyone first.

Thank you in advance:-)

RE: Resource Macro

Hi Thomas

Thank you for your question. You might find a built in filter does all the work you want. In the Gantt chart view go to the Project menu and choose filtered for > Resource.

Project will ask the user to select the resource then the view will be filtered.

Our Advanced Project course looks more closely at creating custom views, filters and macros which you may find helpful if you wish to build more automated approaches for your users. You can find more details here:

In the meantime I hope this helps and do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew
