Milestones
Is it possible to set a duration on the number of days it is estimated for a task to be completed on a task list (duration) without the Milestone turning into a bar
RE: Milestones
Hi Ava
Yes you can. Create your task with the required duration then double click it to go to task information and on the advanced tab check the box to show as milestone. Project redraws your task as a milestone followed by an exended dependency arrow to reflect the duration you entered.
Hope this helps - let us know if you have any further questions.
kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:Avoid Accidental ConstraintsThe 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.) |
