Coloring the tasks

How can I automatically color the tasks via the different resources?

RE: Coloring the tasks

Hi Asa

Thank you for your question.In and of itself Project doesn't automatically change the colours of the bars to reflect assigned resources. This might be because it is possible to assign more that one resource to a task. In that case we would need a further rule to choose a colour where there is more than one resource assigned.

Could you tell me a little more about the project you are working on and how you would like MS Project to respond and I will see if there is a way to accomplish it.

Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:

Avoid Accidental Constraints

The initial default table is the Entry table. Enter a task name and duration, but do not enter start or finish dates. Form the plan using links, predecessors. Typing dates introduces constraints. To remove these constraints, double click on a task, and on the Advanced page of Task Information set the constraint back to As Soon As Possible (all other options are there too.)
