MS Project - Thirds of Months?

One of my Project Managers just asked me a question I couldn't answer.

:-o

You can imagine my acute embarassment and changrin. The very thought of being less knowledgable than a PM makes me shudder, so any help would be much appreciated.

Why does MS Project have the option of displaying thirds of months on the timeline? You can display Beginning/Middle/End (BME) of a calendar month.

Who reports in this manner? Why would you need to see this?

Has anybody heard of this before?

Hi Andrew,

as a project management consultant here in France, I have been told once by customers that "in some instances" IT people could display their schedules by "third of month"

however, I have never seen one of these "some instances"

Regards,

In the final selection for the schedule printout, MSP will select the timescale for best fit on the full page.  The scale selected for viewing really depends on the size screen you have to view it when you select "view entire project".
