Hi John
Thank you for your question
You must first make sure that the calandar options located under Tools-options-calendar, are set the same as your defined base calendar.
You then need to make your base calendar your project default calendar, by clicking on project-information and selecting the relevant calendar in the combo box.
Finally, if you have any resources assigned to the task with different working hours to the project default calendar, then this will alter the duration of the task.
As to making Saturday a work day. Click on the change working time option and select the working time tab. Then select the option button for Saturday and manually type the hours in.
Hope this helps
Regards
Stephen
