You can add weekends by setting up the standard calendar. Use the Change Working Time in the Project ribbon. Go to the Work Weeks tab and set Saturday and Sunday to the appropriate working times. Hope this helps…

Hello, i would like to ask nearly the same. I have created a one-year project with subprojects, and the program takes off weekends from time intervallums. I would like to see the WHOLE project with weekend days. How can i set this? Thank you in advance.

Tuğçe,

Larry has already explained how to do it. Also see the article here:

When I build a 6 work day calendar to include Saturdays in my work week and I set the calendar for a task in the advance tab, to 6 day work Calendar…my task using the 6 day calendar start having 1/2 days or partial days show up on the Guant Chart.
How do I correct this?
Note: I use MS Project for scheduling construction projects…we don’t use the Resource Loading or Hours…we strictly use whole days.
