Hi Meryl,

The easiest way to allocate resources to tasks is to split the GANNT chart view, so that you have the GANNT chart in the upper window, and the task information view in the lower window. Do this by opening the GANNT chart and clicking on Window-Split.

Select the task you wish to allocate resources to in the GANNT chart, then select the resources to allocate in the lower view. Be sure to select all the required resources before clicking "OK", or clicking outside of the lower pane, as once the initial resources are allocated, any further resource changes will change either the task duration, or the total work depending on the task's setting.

Regards

Stephen
