How can I change all of the bars colours to something other than blue? I would like all of them to be purple to match our corporate colours.

Thanks

Kate

Hi Kate

Thank you for your question - you can set the colours by using Format > Bar Styles. From the dialogue box that appears make sure the Task style is selected and choose the colour thatis closest to your corporate style from the selector.
The colour you have chosen will apply to current and future tasks.

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

Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:

Autofit column width – Project (all versions)

At the top of the columns where each column name is located (Task Name, Duration, etc.), hover over the vertical column line which you want to move.

A short bold vertical line will appear, with horizontal arrows pointing left and right.

Left click and hold this icon and it will permit you to grab the column line, allowing you to move it left or right to your desired location.
