Thanks. All in bar style, just finish a test on Project2k and work. I do a backward scheduling and store the late start/finish in a custome field. Then do the forwars scheduling scheduling again to back to early dates. Now display both early and late bars by Bar style.

I think what MKTSE means, is make sure your task has a 3 day float and only 1 day duration. In the Bar Style Options, put Float bar over the other bars defined in the Bar Style Options i.e. put the float bar as the last row in your bar definition.

China - thanks very much for your reply but I am not sure how do do what you suggest. Can you describe what I do from Gantt Chart view as I have tried all the buttons on the task information box with no success.



Thanks again
