RE: dependancies

Hi Jason,

If you just need to see the dependencies for a task then if you look at the entry table on the GANNT chart you will see a column that shows the predecessors for each task. You can then add a Successor column by right clicking on the header row and selecting insert column and choosing successors.

Regards

Stephen

RE: dependancies

Hi Stephen - what i was really getting at was in a long complex ms project schedule which has a long list of tasks . with a mix of takss that are joined as a dependancy and those that are not - is there a view that shows me only tasks that have a dependancy ? hope that makes sense

coz i might want to just look at the dependancies in someone elses mpp that i inheret say and make sure they really are dependancies

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.
