Synchronising tasks with Outlook Calendar

Is there an easy way of synchonising tasks on Project with your calendar in MS Outlook?

RE: Synchronising tasks with Outlook Calendar

Hi Chara,

Thank you for your question.

As far as I am concerned, if you are not using Project 2007 Professional edition in conjunction with Project Server you cannot achieve your desired result.

However there seems to be third party software that seems to allow you to synchronise your tasks.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

MS Project tip:

Link tasks using predecessor column - project

a. First, note ID number of the task you want to link to (predecessor). Then, in the predecessor column of the task you want to link to (successor), type the predecessor task's ID number.
b. The link will be a Finish to Start (the default type).
c. Or you can add in a code for a different relationship type
i. SS = Start to Start
ii. FF = Finish to Finish
iii. SF = Start to Finish
d. You don't have to type the task ID numbers in any specific order, but you must separate multiple tasks with commas.
