MS Project Tip
Who doesn't like good MS Project Tips. Here is one on how to print the notes. I ran into this in ALLPM, a site dedicated to improve project management.
Q: What would be some tips about documenting changes in the project. My sponsorslike to see the changes in dates, durations documented. I am currently usingthe Notes column. However, this doesn't print well with Gantt charts and printingit at the end has limited utility. Additionally, it seems there is a field limit.
A: John, there are two ways of printing Notes:
- as a separate page through File, Page Setup, tab View
- in between the tasks by using a Report, choose Views, Reports, click Custom,select a Task report and click Edit, tab Definition, select Notes.
The next best way is to save your entire project in MS Access and add fieldsto the tables in MS Access in which you capture the changes.Hope this helps...
