[@Amikhasy]

Excellent!!! Well done.Thanks so much, I've refreshed my MS skills,

[@vision6D]

This comment makes me feel great. Have a nice day.

[@trevorrabey736]

Some suggestions. Before starting to list the tasks, ensure all new tasks are auto scheduled, at the bottom left of the screen. Also, go to the format tab and the right hand end of the ribbon check the box for project summary task. This will make line 0 the first line in the list. Also, go to view, tables, more tables, and remove the text wrapping from the task name. This will prevent fat row heights. Also, go to file, options, display and check the box for entry bar. Also, in the view tab, uncheck the box for timeline. You don't need it and it is a waste of space. Having done all of that, when you name a task, make sure that it starts with a verb. Tasks are things you have to do, which is the definition of a verb. "integration" is not a verb, so it is not a task.

[@rfast10430]

Thanks for the excellent suggestions; I'm a beginner and I will be using them.

[@vision6D]

Thank you for those value full additions.

[@vision6D]

Christian Download To ease the learning of MS Project I created a new download page on Vision6D.com/download to let you download some of the MS Project files.

Thank you for sharing these good videos.. simple and very useful it would be great if you post more videos for advance training levels :) just two tiny point 1-:sometimes when you are recording it is over zoomed on some part of pages 2- I think if you record your voice a bit louder then no one lose any words. Many thanks!

[@vision6D]

Thank you for these good feedback. I'll pay attention to your remarks. About over zooming, are you watching from a PC or a mobile? About the sound, I'll change my recording settings. For advanced training it's something that I'm considering. Which topic would be of interest to you?
