| Technical Tips and Tricks | |
|
When you’ve created a project, why is it
that you can’t always make tasks schedule the way you
want. Often, you want to overlap tasks or have gaps of
inactivity between them. You’ve tried to
drag task bars around, but this unfortunately applies
(often unwanted) constraints. You’ve also tried to use
different link types but these only seem to constrain
EITHER the start or finish of a task.
If you click on the link below, these tips and tricks illustrate how you can dramatically change a project’s schedule (and its critical path) with some straightforward editing of the familiar finish to start link. |

| Test your Microsoft Project knowledge | |
| Finally, a bit of fun. We've complied a sample of ten questions so you can test your Microsoft Project knowledge. Each question carries a weighted percentage score and covers a particular skill set that would be used in the planning and management of a Microsoft Project plan. With only ten questions we cannot guarantee this assessment is a comprehensive one, although it should provide you with a reasonable assessment of what you currently know. Just click on the link below to go to the quiz. | |
