Merging gantt charts

I have a number of separate gantt charts which I want to merge so that they cna be shown on one report. How can I do this?

RE: merging gantt charts

Hi Mark

Thank you for your question. One way to do this would be to create a new blank project then from the Insert menu choose Project... and browse to select the first plan you would like to incorporate. Move down to the next row in your project and insert the next plan. Repeat until they are all in your new temporary project file. You can open the plans up by clicking on the + symbol beside the title of each project.

The combined project is made up of live project data. So if you edit in the combined project and save your changes you will be given the opportunity to save the changes back to the respective sub projects as well.

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.
