Thanks, Bob. I should have been more specific. I had been trying to find a way to draw progress lines. Especially getting it to roll up to the summary line. Because I’m trying to replace manually tracking progress on printed paper with tracking in the actual schedule file. I came to realize later that using baselines is a better way to view plan v…[Read more]

Thank you, but this doesn’t really help. I’m trying to set up a series of weekend work subproject files that should be updated by different resource groups. Then I can insert them into a master file and use a common piece of data on the task level of each subproject to group them together by job.

I’m formatting summary tasks based on the name. Thanks for your input.

Thanks. I have to work with company IS to try to get it fixed. We tried repairing the App but that didn’t work. I’ll see if I can find out if there’s an update available.

No, I had not. And that was the problem. Thank you very much!
